Carlsen has been a giant child the last few years.
The sooner Caruana gains 30 rating points and replaces him as #1, the better.

Who is being childish and unprofessional? Fining and kicking someone out over pants (and shoes) is the height of pettiness to me. He sounds like someone who just didn't care about it, and that's fine. If you don't like the rules, leave. And he did.

He cared the 100 other tournaments, and he would have cared if his first 2-3 days weren't terrible and not be out of winning the tournament.
