Congratulations to Magnus Carlsen for winning Côte d’Ivoire, the first leg of 2019 #GrandChessTour with 2 rounds to spare!!
A perfect finish also saw Magnus Carlsen end as the 2700 chess blitz no. 1, by the smallest possible margin!

Today is Mother's Day. So many chess players have been created because of the dedication and efforts of their mothers.
They say that behind every good man is a good woman. Well, we say that behind every good player is a great mom.
Happy Mother's Day!❤️
