Global Chess League Season: After an eventful day at the Global Chess League (GCL) Season 3 draft in Mumbai, American Gambits\ head coach GM Srinath Narayanan and co-owner Prachura PP discussed their draft approach. They emphasised their focus on securing GM Arjun Erigaisi and the promising talent Volodar Murzin, known as the X-factor, as they prepare for the upcoming season in India later this year.
American Gambits retained Icon player Hikaru Nakamura and top women's player Bibisara Assaubayeva. In the draft, they made essential additions, including top Men Richard Rapport and Vladislav Artemiev, top Women Teodora Injac, and prodigy Volodar Murzin, to strengthen their team.
The team engaged in a fierce bidding war with the Alaskan Knights for World No. 4 Arjun Erigaisi but narrowly failed to secure his services.
