We tore up the format to create a new optimised rulebook that ensured every move mattered, all the time. What followed were nine months of explosive action on the board &#8211; and sometimes off it &#8211; which pushed the boundaries of chess even further. This was chess broadcasting at a new level. Chess connected with new people, sponsors, and markets &#8211; as new partnerships with PUMA, Secretlab, Mastercard, and others showed. Our innovative new tournament in Miami took the online game to a live in-person audience for the first time, changing the sport forever.<\/p>\n<p>Chess is now undeniably booming. As an indication, the number of registered users on the Tour\u2019s new parent platform Chess.com doubled between September and January to 120 million. Recent months surpassed one billion games played per month.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                            \n                            \n                            \n                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"col visibly-hidden col--flex-align-right\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n\n<!-- blocks\/video -->\n<!-- inc\/comp\/video -->\n<section class=\"video  grad-map--1 grad-map--1--no-greyscale \" id=\"\">\n    <div\n      class=\"video__image \"\n      style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/leadersinsport.com\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/7X4A3908-1024x684.jpeg);\"    >\n        \n                    <div class=\"video__overlay theme-dark\">\n                <div class=\"wrapper wrapper--md\">\n                    <div class=\"video__content\">\n                        <div class=\"video__content__inner\">\n                                                            <div class=\"icon icon--play icon--xlg\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" data-modal-id=\"vimeoModal850633684\" data-vimeo-video-id=\"850633684\"><\/div>\n                            \n                                                            <p class=\"video__label es-label es-label--md \">WATCH<\/p>\n                            \n                                                            <h2 class=\"h2 video__title\">FIND OUT MORE<\/h2>\n                            \n                                                            <p class=\"video__text es-label es-label--sm\">\n                                    &#8211; 3.07 mins                                <\/p>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<!-- inc\/comp\/video-modal -->\n<section class=\"es-modal es-modal--video\" id=\"vimeoModal850633684\" data-vimeo-video-id=\"850633684\">\n    <div class=\"es-modal__box\" role=\"dialog\" aria-labelledby=\"modal_850633684_title\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n        <div class=\"es-modal__controls theme-dark\">\n            <button class=\"es-modal__control es-modal__close icon icon--md icon--cross\" aria-label=\"Close Modal\"><\/button>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"es-modal__box__inner\">\n            <div class=\"theme-1\">\n                <div style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0; position:relative;\">\n                    <iframe id=\"vimeoVideo850633684\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/850633684\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n                <\/div>\n\n                \n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<!-- blocks\/section -->\n<section\n  class=\"es-section flexible-section  text-only theme-light\"\n    >\n                <div class=\"container\">\n                                    <div class=\"bg-striped-pattern__inner section-padding-top section-padding-bottom\">\n                <div class=\"es-section__inner col-parent col-parent--stack-sm\">\n                                            <div class=\"es-section__sidebar es-section__sidebar--sticky col col--12 \">\n                            \n                            \n                            \n                                                            <div class=\"es-section__text content-area\">\n                                    <p><p>At the elite level, the 2022 Tour also sparked an era-defining shift: the greatest chess player of all time Magnus Carlsen abdicated his over-the-board world title and now sees online chess as the future.<\/p>\n<p>The Tour has become the true test of the world\u2019s best. A brilliant 2022 season helped shift attitudes. Carlsen faced some of his toughest challenges from a cohort of talented young players given a stage to show their hunger. In games reported worldwide, Carlsen lost to two Indian teenagers who went on to become stars in their homeland. The two youngsters gained praise from their Prime Minister and received civic honours.<\/p>\n<p>The Tour&#8217;s blockbuster broadcast is helping build brands, showcase stars of the future and make
