17-year-old Challenger: How Gukesh made chess history | In Focus podcast
Manage episode 414088380 series 2606066
Gukesh Dommaraju, the 17-year-old Indian chess prodigy, has become the youngest player ever to win the Candidates tournament. As he broke a 40-year-old record in the name of Garry Kasparov, Gukesh became only the second Indian after Viswanathan Anand to win a Candidates event and earn the right to challenge the world champion for the title.
But Gukesh’s journey hasn’t been easy. He almost didn’t qualify for the Candidates tournament – making the cut at the last minute, thanks to a hurriedly organised event in Chennai. And the moments before his victory were full of nail-biting drama.
Guest: Rakesh Rao from The Hindu’s Sports Bureau.
Host: G. Sampath, Social Affairs Editor, The Hindu.
