[Ramesh RB @Rameshchess]

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!

Check out the incredible final moments of Praggnanandhaa taking down World no.1 Magnus Carlsen with the Black pieces in Round 8 of Norway Chess 2026!

With this win, Pragg becomes the first Indian (and possibly in the world) player who defeated Magnus Carlsen in Classical Chess twice in the same tournament! What a moment for Indian Chess.

Congratulations @chessvaishali . She showed excellent preparation and resilience. Took the blows & delivered the punches. A proud moment for Indian chess with two Indians to cheer for in the World Championships. Personally proud that our @WacaChess mentee will now have a shot at the world title.
