Africa no.1 Dr. Bassem Amin will take on legends Anand, Carlsen, Nakamura in Casablanca

When it comes to African chess there is no doubt that what Bassem Amin has managed to achieve is simply unbelievable. The GM from Egypt not only became the first one to cross 2700 Elo in classical chess, till date he remains the only one to do so. He is also a doctor! He is in Casablanca as he prepares to take on Vishy Anand, Magnus Carlsen and Hikaru Nakamura at the Morocco Chess Week. We speak to Bassem about this very big opportunity in his life and also how he is approaching it.

I only just realized that this tournament has one representative from each continent- Vishy (Asia), Magnus (Europe), Hikaru (Americas), and Amin (Africa).

Something is wrong with the audio. This is not how he sounds like at all.

[@kiratsidhu10]

بالتوفيق يا دكتور باسم ❤️

[@biswajitsahoo7155]

Such a humble guy

[@christian2M]

Bassem Amin is also the strongest Arab chess player in the world! He is also a medical doctor, so not all the time a professional chess player. A really nice and smart person!

great dr: bassem

[@feinfein4444]

there's something wrong with the mic I guess, the sound quality is bad

[@secondero4944]

Casablanca is a very loud city, so its actually tough to get a clear sound when you film outside, honks everywhere, the wind, but i love it and miss it

[@djudjux3936]

He was already in Abidjan in 2019 - first event ever happening on the African continent won by a world champion (Magnus Carlsen at the time).
I want the Grand Chess Tour to go back to Ivory Coast !

Best of luck

What chess you run karwan

[@Manish-ly7iw]

He is from Egypt right?

[@XXSFA7]

Great Interview, Bad microphone.

[@slayerazore752]

ia voice ?

[@DPSR50]

That's not Bassem's original voice. It's annoying how you modified his voice to be robotic and form unclear words. If Sagar's voice is original and clear, how come that both microphones are not the same

[@VinayVekaria]

Is it GM Dr Bassem Amin? Or Dr GM Bassem Amin?

[@MaharshiRay]

The real question is if GM and Dr. follow commutative property 😂
