Breaking Records: Indian Teen Gukesh Dommaraju Wins Chess World Championship
18-year-old Gukesh Dommaraju from India made history by becoming the youngest chess world champion ever.
He achieved this remarkable feat in December 2024 when he defeated China’s Ding Liren in the FIDE World Chess Championship in Singapore.
The victory, secured after a tense match, made Dommaraju the youngest-ever undisputed world champion, breaking the previous record set by Garry Kasparov in 1985 at age 22.
