Gukesh becomes World Championship challenger at 17!

Gukesh D, an incredibly level-headed 17-year-old from Chennai, became the World Chess Championship challenger by winning the very strong 2024 Candidates Tournament in Toronto. Gukesh entered the final round as the sole leader, and safely held a draw with black against direct contender Hikaru Nakamura. Either Fabiano Caruana or Ian Nepomniachtchi could have caught the youngster with a win, but their direct encounter saw Caruana failing to make the most of a number of winning chances before agreeing to a 109-move draw in what turned out to be a titanic struggle. | Photo: FIDE / Michal Walusza

One Week of Daily Chess - Did It Improve My Game or Not?

This is a summary of the first week of Arne's daily chess studies. He enjoys the liberty to pick his learning resources as he pleases. His focus was on revisiting the foundational principles of endgames and exploring an entirely new opening that he had previously not ventured into: The Sicilian Dragon.
