Reigning world chess champion D. Gukesh announced he will participate only in the rapid and blitz tournaments in Warsaw and Zagreb during the 2026 Grand Chess Tour. Citing recent poor form, the 19-year-old Indian grandmaster plans to skip longer events away from home to focus on training. Grand Chess Tour organizers approved his request and named Javokhir Sindarov as his replacement for the full tour.

GM Vincent Keymer increased his lead to a full point in the Super Chess Classic Romania 2026 after GM Alireza Firouzja withdrew from the event. The withdrawal gave Keymer a forfeit win in round six while all other games ended in draws. Firouzja's decision came after an ankle injury that forced him to play previous games from a hotel bed.
