Gukesh sponsered arranged him so don't worry he will be paid fairly. Money is not a matter we Indians should remember and honoured paddy upston sir, that is we should do to him.
Thanks for that. Didn't realize he worked with them in that era. I don't live in a cricketing nation, but was lucky enough to live in Australia during the end of the great Aussie team around 2000. I was always impressed by the dispassionate way cricket commentators of different nations would analyze the matches. Very even handed. I see that in Gukesh and all the young Indian generation. Glad Gukesh won. But Ding is a good guy, too.
@akhanduyitr369 Cricket players. Tendulkar, called the Little Master, is one of the greatest cricket players who ever lived. Retired maybe 15 years ago. Cricket in India is way more popular than chess. I forget the exact numbers, but after soccer (football, World Cup), cricket may be the second most popular sport in the world. India plus Pakistan is a lot of people. Very interesting game. Great literature, too.
Paddy is Our Lucky Charm, he was part of staff with 2011 CWC winning team, 2024 Paris Olympics Men's Hockey team, and now With World Chess Champion Gukesh D. ❤️❤️
Terrific work, kudos to Gikesh and Paddy, AND I do not know everything, but I I know I could coach a willing American player to the World Championship!
This guy is really special. I wish I had paddy in my life.I could have done few things better in my life.Nowadays sportsmen are lucky to have experts like him.
Get this man back as the mental coach of ICT,he is the lucky charm we need.Keep rotating him with every other sport till we are world champions in most of the sports.
Wish pady was the coach of Bobby fisher .. wish someone was there to guide the greatest mind of that time fisher , we all know how tragic path he took and he left the game ( bobby) which suggests YES MIND NEEDS A LOT OF TRAINING. EVEN A GENIUS CAN FAULTER HIS PATH
hope the sponsors continue to retain him to provide mental fitness to the champion. The champion will need it now more than ever. The biggest challenge is going to be grow up as himself without being influenced by stupid media and how others view him.
Thank you, Sir. Imagine if Paddy feels like a kid at such an event, what would be the mental state of Gukesh. Players do need some moral/mental support. Thank you.🙏
5:19 this is exactly why Ding blundered towards the end. He mentioned he was having bad memories from the candidates, losing a similar bishop end game. It is so hard to control your mind to stay in the present. Other GMs can criticize Ding but each GM’s personal journey and life moments are unique. May be if it was knights or two rooks, he probably drew the game comfortably. It’s the small distraction of thinking about past losses that led to the Rf2-mistake. So it probably helped Gukesh hiring Paddy and have a mental game plan. Avoid distractions. Feel so sorry for Ding. He does not deserve the criticism.
In game 11 we sa this strategy as gukesh said in his interview that "he thought his position was bad so tried to relax and focus on the current position as upton said and went on winning that game
Paddy is a star he knows human psycology to its best thats why he brings great results in players individual performance thank you sir for helping gukesh ❤
Thanks to the sponsor Westbridge Capital! This was a fantastic decision. Paddy has a proven track record. Elite sports definitely require mental conditioning. WACA has a fair share in this success. Thanks to father of Indian Chess, Vishy Anand as well.
Indian sport owes a fair amount to this guy. What a star!
You are so right my Bro.
everytime there was a big tournament paddy was there
Gukesh sponsered arranged him so don't worry he will be paid fairly. Money is not a matter we Indians should remember and honoured paddy upston sir, that is we should do to him.
He coached the Indian hockey and cricket teams as well. GOAT.
Really!
yup we won World Cup 2011 @@gk9257
@@gk9257 He was the indian mental coach when india won the worldcup in 2011
Yes he was the mental coach of the 2011 wc winning Indian team and also the tokyo Olympics bronze medalist hockey team @@gk9257
Best decision Gukesh did to take support of Upton.
It was Gukesh's sponsors Westbridge Capital who hired Paddy to help Gukesh
But Gukesh needed to accept the help. In the end it was his decision right? 🤔
Know about Paddy since he was with Indian Cricket team during Sehwag, Ganguli. Dravid. VVS, Tendulkar era.
Lucky charm for india
Also with Indian hockey team in France Olympics@@decodewithpranu

Paddy is kinda lucky charm for India.. We won cricket world-cup back in 2011 under him.. Now chess-championship. ❤❤🎉
Not to forget Men's Hockey Bronze in Paris Olympics 2024😊
He was there in the 2021 T20 WC but we got a group stage exit🙂
😂😂😂@@rahulbanerjee9898
He is the Mental Coach of Indian Sports 🎺♥️
He adds incremental and supplemental value to Gukesh that is detrimental to Ding, which is instrumental and fundamental to Gukesh’s victory.
She is listening, she responding and asking genuinely FANTASTIC 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Paddy you made South Africa proud.
is he is from south africa ?? might be who cares but we converted him into an indian breed .
Two South Africans 🎉

Terrific work, kudos to Gikesh and Paddy, AND I do not know everything, but I I know I could coach a willing American player to the World Championship!
Interesting he comes from cricket. India is cricket crazy. They're down under playing Australia right now.
Top 5 for Gukesh in terms of self awareness. That’s excellent for such a young person. 😊
He's a gem of a guy , worked with the hockey team for Olympic bronze and the Indian cricket team for the world cup , and now this huge feat
Hockey team won Olympic bronze, not gold.
Mental coach real important
Awesome interview!❤ Very thoughtful questions!! Maybe that's why I am not making progress in chess-i badly need a mental coach!
You need a mental coach only after you cross 2700.
😂
Romeo Rocks🎉🎉🎉
It made all the difference during endgame
Thanks Fide. It's great to listen from Paddy Upton. So many things to learn.
Thank you sir,...from chennai INDIA
Hats off Paddy! Thank you Sandeep from Westbridge for facilitating Paddy helping Gukesh.

Wow.... Paddy putting him in Top 5 athletes is something.
top 5 he met not overall, and mostly he is saying chess
@tam2136 Top 5 among the ones he has worked with. That's very impressive to make it to that list.
@@user-ht7jt2gr5j yeah thats what i am saying, also chess is not an ultimate sport so….
@@tam2136 He can only talk about the people whom he has met.

Paddy is a lucky charm for india.
Paddy upton was buddy of Indian cricket coach Garry
For the last question he wanted to say ,"Well I play chess in real life. Im the king and you can be my queen"
Paddy is a star he knows human psycology to its best thats why he brings great results in players individual performance thank you sir for helping gukesh ❤
He should be made mental coach for Indian Olympics team
He was he worked with Indian Olympic hockey team
Do they both know they are from South Africa? 🇿🇦 ❤
Thanks to the sponsor Westbridge Capital! This was a fantastic decision. Paddy has a proven track record. Elite sports definitely require mental conditioning.
WACA has a fair share in this success. Thanks to father of Indian Chess, Vishy Anand as well.
Thanks Paddy
two staffers at WC . Charlize must be happy
Great interviewing skills.
Ding needed such kind of support- he lacked financial backing apparently (al least based on Hikaru’s comment on the same)
This guy should be in Indian cricket dressing room on all major tours
Awesome !
Cute girl asked all important questions 😊
Who is the interviewer?
Charlize van zyl
Can anyone tell me her name? I am in love with her❤

Funny things is that Paddy is a cricket player 😅
