hindustantimes.com — December 29, 2024 at 02:02 AM UTC

D Gukesh, at 18, became the youngest world chess champion after defeating Ding Liren in Singapore. His victory came after a dramatic 14-game match, where Liren made a critical mistake in the final moves. Gukesh credited Viswanathan Anand for his success, revealing that Anand helped him secure Polish grandmaster Grzegorz Gajewski as his exclusive coach. Gukesh emphasized Anand's ongoing support and mentorship throughout his training. Following his championship win, Gukesh and his team opted out of the year-end Rapid and Blitz Championship. He plans to return to competition next year, facing top players like Anand and Magnus Carlsen in 2025.
