GM Eric Hansen announced today on his official twitter account that he decided to withdraw from the FIDE World Rapid Chess Championship 2022 for medical reasons. Hansen explained that he developed aggressive flu-like symptoms overnight and that he will decide in 2 days if he will compete in the Blitz Championship.

I withdrew from the World Rapid today after developing some aggressive flu-like symptoms overnight 😞

I’ll see how I’m feeling in 48 hours before I make a decision on the blitz. Very frustrating
