The crowd ERUPTS as GUKESH WINS!!! 😍 #DingGukesh

It took 25 min to play the move, we analysed every single option and built on it, the shift on Vidit during that time was visible, felt the moment and did our best to convey that to people watching. For 25 min, with no moves people stayed on. Reacting to a clip without context is really a very odd outside in way of looking at chess broadcasting, but I guess there’s no other way at this point 😅🤷🏻‍♀️

We would like to go public and express our sincere thanks GM Mahel Boyer and @GirelJoseph GM Joseph Girel, both from France, for helping @rpraggnachess in his opening preparations over the last couple of years. Along with GM @vaibhavschess, we have been able to build a compact unit with high level of trust in each other. We feel this is a good time the chess world comes to know about the silent, behind the scenes contribution of Joseph and Mahel in Pragg's progress. Thank you boys!

Grateful and thankful for all the love and support! Looking forward to my next game. #NorwayChess

It is a testament to Magnus Carlsen's greatness that for 18 years, no player has beaten him twice in the same classical event 👀 🇮🇳 And until Norway Chess 2026, Viswanathan Anand was the last Indian to win a classical tournament featuring Carlsen (the Morelia-Linares tournament in 2007). Then, R Praggnanandhaa flipped the script 💪 ▶️ Read more: bit.ly/4e7A28T
