Recently, cheating in chess has hit the headlines, to the point that even non-aficionados would have heard something about it.

Magnus Carlsen, the current reigning World Champion, lost a game playing white in a tournament to 19-year-old Hans Niemann, ranked approximately 40th in the world. The loss rocked the 31-year-old Carlsen, to the point that he pulled out of the tournament.
