Ding Liren has disappeared

Sort:
GMParanoid

Ding won the world chess championship and became world champion but now he has suddenly disappeared. He played only some games in super chess tournament. Nepo is still consistent and he is participating in other tournaments. Ding took a long nap during COVID-19 and now he is still sleeping. There is a thing I noticed in ding liren's wcc interview. He looks kinda sad and depressed. He also thought about his retirement from chess. At a time Magnus said that my fav opponent is Ding. 
Recently, I was so happy to see Ding playing in SCC but then on the game day ding vs arjun bracket was removed and then Cc tweeted that Ding Liren has withdrawn from the tournament.
This is a heartbreaking moment for Ding Liren fans. We all want him to play. He is not playing since like more than 6 months. He will become weak in chess if he will not play.
I am thankful to god for not sending me in the time when people were waiting for Bobby to comeback.
Edit : He still opens his cc account.

Unlike many other top players, Ding Liren has a full time non-chess job, as a lawyer.

Kindly look at your rating before judging the current World champion.

Some breaks are crucial after such a big mess, appropriate mindset and preparation is required to play like that. We must keep in mind that Ding is not just another GM or Super GM when he can just play the tournament with some prep and stuff.

Being the World Champion is no joke; It comes with tons of pros and cons!

Respectfully,
Sir, I know it is not easy to be a world chess champion and it's a long journey but the world championship ended a long time ago. In my opinion, Ian lost and he lost the world championship two times so he should be sad and not play for sometime but he again started playing consistently in tournaments.
Ding is inconsistent, I am not the only one who says this. Everyone has this complaint with Ding. Due to traveling problem in China. He plays very less. Now he is our champion so people expect him to play. I guess you don't use X(twitter). I defend Ding Liren there. He gets a lot of hate for not playing and people call him as "Coward Champion" even when He withdrew from SCC.
Let me tell you something.
Alireza defeated Ding in a tournament and he said that It is easier to defeat Ding and it was tough to defeat Magnus.
I love to share my opinion and my rating will not stop me from giving my opinion happy.png. Ig u are the one who downvoted my post but yeah it's fine!
