Just a comparison of Chess with other Sports.
Chess is a truly International Sport. Few World Federations of any Sport will have more member federations. Football is certainly ahead but how many others? That should be an interesting comparison for Government and potential sponsors.
btw, I was fascinated to see that the 'Trap shooter' Peter Wilson's coach is a member of the ruling Dubai Royal family. That's the kind of coaching support we need!!!
