Who is chess player Alisher Suleymenov, bio, age, family, nationality and FIDE rating
After admitting that he was “completely crushed” by Kazakh GM Alisher Suleymenov in the second round of the 2023 Qatar Masters, World No. 1 Magnus Carlsen placed the blame on his inability to focus on the fact that his opponent had broken the customary anti-cheating norms by wearing a watch.
2/2 I obviously take responsibility for my inability to deal with those thoughts properly, but it’s also incredibly frustrating to see organisers still not taking anti-cheating seriously at all (no transmission delay, spectators walking around the playing hall with smartphones)

The arbitrator informed Magnus Carlsen that smart watches were prohibited but analogue watches were permitted, which Carlsen believed to “be against FIDE rules.”
I did ask an arbiter during the game whether watches were allowed, and he clarified that smartwatches were banned, but not analog watches. This seems to be against FIDE rules for events of this stature

Magnus later tweeted that he was not accusing his opponent of cheating.
Just to be clear, I am not accusing my opponent today of cheating. Constantly using my name for clicks is fine, but this is just lame. Do better. pic.twitter.com/qBURl4JutS
