World chess champion Magnus Carlsen has withdrawn from the Fide World Rapid and Blitz Chess Championships in New York after being told to change his jeans, which violated tournament dress code regulations. Despite offering to change his attire for the following day, he was fined and required to change immediately. Carlsen, a prominent figure in chess known for previous controversies, expressed his indifference to the ruling, stating he is ‘too old at this point to care too much.’
