D. Gukesh made history on Thursday, becoming the youngest-ever World Chess Champion at just 18, after defeating reigning champion Ding Liren of China in the 14th and final game of a thrilling match at the 2024 World Chess Championship in Singapore. Prior to Gukesh’s remarkable achievement, Russia's legendary Garry Kasparov held the record as the youngest champion, having claimed the title at 22. Gukesh now joins Viswanathan Anand as only the second Indian to win the prestigious global title. Many Congratulations Gukesh, for making India proud! #WorldChessChampionship #DGukesh #Chess #WorldChampion #ChessChampionship #WorldChessChampionship #DGukesh #Chess #WorldChampion #ChessChampionship
