USA: Some people's success goes uncelebrated. Don't know why...? Congratulations to the 17-year-old son of India, Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa, who overthrew world number one Magnus Carlsen.
India's 17-year-old chess master Ramesh Babu Praggnanandha has created history in world chess by defeating world champion Magnus Carlsen in the FTX Crypto Cup, the world chess (CHESS) championship held in Miami. But Carlson is the tournament champion based on points.
Like sports and arts, winning with intelligence is great, let the journey of victory continue. It's getting dark. India's proud boy Ramesh Babu Pragnanandha is battling World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen in the final round of the FTX CryptoCup in Miami, US, 15,000 km away from Chennai.
Pragnanandha reached the final on Monday by securing second place in a tie breaker. Carlson sealed victory in the tournament by winning the third match of the tournament. Even if Pragnanandha made a comeback, Carlson had more points based on reaching the tie breaker.
Pragnanandha won $37,000 for the second place. But the 17-year-old has defeated Carlson three times in the last six months.
A message has been sent from Chennai to the sister's phone - 'We have to beat Carlson'. Those words were very sharp. In the seventh round, the first 2 games were tied, but Magnus was close to winning the match by winning the third game at that time. Pragnananda is sitting as if all this is not normal. He has to keep his promise to his sister and his sister Vaishali...
He is praying with both his eyes tightly closed, wearing his daily bhasma kuri. The distance to the break in the last game has narrowed, and Pragnananda reacts with distinction and maturity to Magnus's attempts to tie the game with a rook in front. At the last moment, Carlsen was overturned so that he could not turn left, right or move, and the game was heated and the game went to a tiebreaker....
Pragnananda got a quick hat-trick victory and match point by beating Magnus in the next 2 quick games. It was also a historic event where the world chess champion lost three consecutive games against the same opponent. It is the first time in the world that a person has achieved such an achievement.
Pragnananda added that "My sister will sleep because it's this time, she doesn't have the habit of staying up to watch the final round, even if she loses the game, she wouldn't feel too disappointed. There will be no play for two or three days and only rest. The next tournament is in Dubai." With each game, the teenager becomes more energetic, more confident, and bolder. Success was his only goal...
Even when Pragnanandha became a world-renowned chess champion, the fan support and celebrity recognition did not affect the son of Nagalakshmi and Rameshbabu, natives of Chennai. Pragnanandha's father was born with polio, making it difficult for him to travel. So the mother takes her son everywhere. Pragnanandha came to see her sister playing chess on the birthday. Pragnanandha became the youngest International Master at the age of 10.
All eyes of the world were on Pragnanandha, the pride of India, when he toppled world champion Magnus Carlsen at the Airthings Masters Rapid tournament in February 2022. It's only a matter of days before a teenager named Pragnanandha becomes the world's adored chess king.
