Uzbekistan wins home gold at record-breaking Chess Olympiad in Samarkand

The biggest Chess Olympiad in history brought almost 400 teams from around the world to Samarkand, where host nation Uzbekistan won gold in the Open competition after defeating Ukraine in the final round. Uzbekistan won its first Chess Olympiad title in India's Chennai in 2022 and followed it with bronze in Budapest two years later. “This is our second Olympiad victory. Winning it at home feels different,” Uzbek grandmaster Javokhir Sindarov said. “I think we played the tournament at the highest level.” Sindarov’s next major test will come later this year.
