Counting Sheep

Speaking in a conversation with Матч ТВ (Match TV), three-time Russian Women’s Champion Aleksandra Yuryevna Goryachkina expressed hope that her fellow countryman Ian Alexandrovich Nepomniachtchi was able to find his balance: “It is important not to go wrong, but to play steadily and probably sleep well. Your head won’t turn off — it’s a global problem”, she said. “As for myself, I never solved it, because in less important competitions, where the results are not so vital, that’s not a problem. But here, with such an unrelievable tension... Don’t even know. I hope Ian Alexandrovich somehow solved this problem, and that he then shares his solution”. Screenshot from Матч ТВ (Match TV).
