Hikaru Nakamura Signs to Misfits Gaming, WME

In chess’s romantic period, strong players would only move a piece if an opponent could raise enough cash to make it worth their while. In the modern era, top players were funded by governments, clubs, wealthy benefactors, or a combination thereof, with a political, personal, or professional interest at stake. For a long time, this made sense for a sport like chess, whose traditionally glacial pace of esoteric intellectual gameplay wasn’t exactly a frenzy of spectacle for prospective sponsors.
