Carlsen decries lack of anti-cheat measures in Qatar after shock defeat

The world’s highest-rated chess player suffered a massive loss in the second round of the Qatar Masters Open 2023 tournament to Alisher Suleymenov, a 2512-rated Kazakhstani grandmaster who was the 47th seed at the event and number 578 in the world rankings before it began. Suleymenov performed an incredible sacrificial attack to demolish the chess GOAT, who took to Twitter after the game today to complain about a lack of anti-cheat measures at the event.

It is tough to overstate just how brutal a beatdown Carlsen received in round two of the Qatar Masters Open, where he succumbed to a significantly lower-rated opponent in just 31 moves, who pulled off a devastating sacrificial attack against the world No. 1 in incredible fashion.
