@jeffowski did any male chess grandmasters also boycott in support of their female colleagues? (I'll bet that's a no)

@http_error_418 @jeffowski The info is a bit hard to find for me at the moment, but it looks like Nakamura boycotted as well. Carlsen threatened to boycott the next year but I can’t find if his demands were met or not.

Addendum: the tournament was moved out of Saudi Arabia the next year. Not sure if it was due to Carlsen’s protest, but it did meet his demands.
