All the kids are doing well.
What is your definition of kids?
Probbaly: everyone younger than yourself.
They’re all 18 yrs and older, adults.
Go, Wesley So! We’re proud of you!
Sorry guys but Wesley So was given a so so raw deal treatment by the Corus organizers.
Wesley had a higher ELO than Hou Yifan right?
So why is So playing in the C group?? So might lose out on his ELO points regardless of his play.
Yeah, I think he barely made it to the competition. His father said that when they chose who will land at which group, So’s rating was in the higher 2500s. Hence, he landed at group C.
