Hans Niemann hits back at his critics

Hans Niemann pulled off a great escape against Leinier Dominguez in Round 5 of the Sinquefield Cup, but chess fans had stuck around not for the chess but the post-game interview. It didn’t disappoint, as Hans admitted cheating online in the past but denied ever cheating over-the-board. He hit out at Magnus Carlsen, Hikaru Nakamura and Chesscom, who he revealed had banned him after Carlsen’s withdrawal.
