Last year, the SCC Finals made history as one of the most-watched chess events of the year. In Paris, the sold-out arena burst with emotions as a legion of fans witnessed GM Magnus Carlsen prevailing over GMs Alireza Firouzja, Hikaru Nakamura, and Hans Niemann.
Carlsen himself was impressed by the atmosphere of the arena and praised the event. “I really think this is a format that chess needs more of,” said the champion. “We know from casual games that spectators don’t really shut up when people are playing. So, let’s give them a chance to get the hype going.”
I really think this is a format that chess needs more of.
