Indian chess player R Praggnanandhaa achieved a historic milestone by winning the Norway Chess tournament, becoming the first Indian to secure this title since the tournament began in 2013. The 20-year-old showcased remarkable skill, particularly by defeating Magnus Carlsen, a seven-time champion and the World No. 1, twice during the event. Praggnanandhaa's journey in the tournament began slowly, but he gained momentum in the latter half, ultimately finishing with 18 points. His victory was made possible when American Grandmaster Wesley So, who led prior to the final round, was held to a draw, allowing Praggnanandhaa to clinch the title with a win over Keymer. Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, lauded Praggnanandhaa's victory, describing it as a testament to his fearless and focused spirit, reflecting the confidence of a youthful India. This win not only highlights Praggnanandhaa's talent but also keeps India's chess legacy vibrant on the global stage.
