Congratulations to four-time champion of the Americas, FIDE Vice President Julio Granda Zuniga on his birthday!🎂🎉🎈

The intense concentration of Sasikiran in an analysis session after a loss

Look at the focus in his eyes, look at the energy with which he is making his moves. One might imagine that he has won his game. However, the truth is he lost his round 7 encounter to Haik Martirosyan. But the result doesn't bog him down. He wants to learn from his game, from his loss and that's the reason why no one can stop him from improving!

Something for all of us to learn from Sasikiran.
