Facebook post of Levon Aronian, Armenian chess player, grandmaster, two-time world cup winner:
Very intense Olympiad! Congrats to India for their historical achievement! What an unbelievable tour de force!
As for us, I am happy to get silver on individual board and silver as a team USA ! Thanks to Fabi, Wesley , Lenier , Ray and our coaches John and Misha! We didn’t play too well, but we fought very hard and had a great and inspiring come back in the second half.
Additionally i want to share an important milestone for me. FIDE while celebrating its 100th birthday declared Armenia as the team of the century. I am so proud and honored to have been part of this team that made history for our nation.
Love to all the fans!
