World Chess Championship: Game 14 and Tiebreaks

With old age already, it was still very interesting to follow this match closely.
And besides good entertainment, i was quite surprised of witnessing, how much factors outside of chess and its logic had their say in this encounter. I seem to feel, this has always been the case, but i missed to pay attention to those factors in an appropriate manner.

But leaving this subject alone, i llke to think, this outcome offers best chances for the future of our beloved royal game.

Thanks to Mr. Ding, who really went through a perilluous adventure to gain the title, the future of the championships looks a little brighter compared to his opponent, who seemed to lean a bit to the dishonest side of things.

Anyway, what a fight! Thanks Magnus for making this possible. ;-)
Congratulations to Ding. This world championship was really entertaining.
Nepo showed in a shocking way in the closing ceremony that he is no sportsman. he got a medal and took this medal immediately away. i never saw anything disrespectful in my life.
This Achievement by Ding Liren was more like a fluke:
He played the Candidates because Sergey Karjakin left.
He played World Championship because Magnus left.
!! but after all, he became the World champion !!

FUN FACT: Ding Liren is the 1st World Chess Champion from China.

Congrats Ding on Officially being the new World CHESS CHAMPION!
I am so sad but congrats ding i realy hopped Ian would win
I feel as if Ian Nepomniachtchi will contend Ding Liren for the title in 2025. After all, he did win the previous Candidates Tournament by a big margin.
