Everyone's Favorite Commentator Can Play, Too
Dmitry Komarov's "Morphy-style" win over Alireza Firouzja.
It’s time for a little light entertainment. GM Dmitry Komarov, who achieved instant fame as a commentator at the 2013 World Rapid & Blitz Championships, may not be a member of the world’s elite, but he can still play some terrific chess. Here he is, presenting his speedy win over a young(er) Alireza Firouzja - a short and impressive game. The only thing that’s missing is the sort of explosive excitement he would often demonstrate in his commentary on other players’ games.
