Great news to wake up on a Saturday to: Praggnanandhaa wins the prestigious Norway Chess tournament to defeat a stellar line up . โญ๏ธ We have the best white ball cricket team in the world, but Indiaโs less headlined sporting success stories in 21st century are chess and badminton. Weโve had remarkable world beaters in both on a consistent basis. Winning the Thomas Cup is arguably the greatest team achievement in Indian sport in recent times while producing world chess champs like Gukesh must rank with @Neeraj_chopra1 javelin gold and @Pvsindhu1 double Olympic medals as the ultimate individual triumphs . Great credit to pioneers like Prakash Padukone and @vishy64theking who showed the way. Jai Ho ๐ฎ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ณ
Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa is the Champion of Norway Chess 2026! With an incredible win on demand against Vincent Keymer in the final round, Praggnanandhaa wins one of the strongest tournaments of the year scoring 18/30 points, 2 classical wins against World no.1 Magnus Carlsen, and an incredible 4-game Winstreak to finish the event!
A huge congratulations to Praggnanandhaa, his team and his family- this is undoubtedly the biggest achievement of his career so far, and what a way to get there!
