World Chess960 Championship

960 is superior to regular chess.
The nice thing would be professional players could please the sponsors more and be more outgoing. They do not have to study all kind of openings.
From 2100+ it would be nice.

Below 2100 you have a lot of amateurs who do not want to think from move 1. they like their opening they have been playing for the last 30 years.
Also when they play against other clubs they can brag about all the variants they have been studying from their possible opponents.

I agree that professional chess players should ask for sponsorship for Chess960 tournaments. As to whether such tournaments could work well for players over 2100 or not, they might work for now. However, Chess960 should be taught in schools in order to promote it among amateur players.
