We asked the players before the start of the FIDE Candidates—and their answers might surprise you.

Today's #FIDE #chess #Candidates2026 drama seems to be the unlocked Sindarov studies on lichess that may have leaked some of his prep. This seems to be an old incident - he admitted he made this mistake during the World Cup but not since. lichess locked it for him once the discovery was made. 1/2

I'm off to the #FIDE #Candidates2026 soon, luckily also a holiday as there threatens to be a distinct lack of sporting drama...
