Hammer rules!
I just got one thing to say, “RAY ROBSON” !!
Where are Asia’s best – Le Quang Liem, Wesley So, Parimarjan Negi, and the Chinese contingent?
This is not a very strong list.
I hear that Parimarjan Negi is not allowed to play the world juniors this year because he did not play his national Juniors and his National championships. Kind of the same reason they tried to ban Gopal. I dont understand why he is not making a big deal about this.
No Giri, either.
Cordova ( Peru ) you can do it!
