What Happen With Gukesh???
3 loses and the last position for the world champion in the Chennai Master was unexpected but its true that is happening in the last months since he beat Ding Liren for the crown. In this post i going to analyze this 3 games to understand why he is losing and if he can comeback in time cause the olimpiad and his match versus Sindarov are soonR2 vs Firouzja
Bad way to start the tournament with a loss in the second game, this can affect the confidence for the rest of the event.

From Winning To Losing
At this levels is very important to return to the hotel room with the points the days that you are playing well and you have winning positions, or at least not lose cause you are going to have bad days and bad positions other rounds so if you lose the winning games everything turns very hard

In one month and a half we have the olimpiad and India is going to need the best level of Gukesh to defend the title with succes, and of course the world championship match vs Abdu is going to be a huge challenge for Gukesh to prove that he still being a top player.
Firouzja won the tournament with Andreikin and Erigaisi sharing the podium, i made another Post analyzing the best games of the event, see you.
