The International Chess Federation (FIDE) apologized and swiftly removed Russian grandmaster Sergey Karjakin from its March 2026 classical ratings list, where he had briefly appeared at No. 10 due to an unregistered tournament and games, displacing world champion D Gukesh to 11th. The incident reignited debates over Karjakin's exclusion from chess since his 2022 ban for supporting Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
