Indian Grandmaster D Gukesh on Thursday made history as he became the youngest-ever chess champion after beating Ding Liren of China in the decisive Game 14 of the World Championship 2024 in Singapore. With the game heading towards another draw, defending champions Ding hit the self-destruct button by moving his Rook adjacent to the King. If the match had ended in a draw, the world championship would've been decided via tie-break on Friday. However, Gukesh did ever so well to pounce on Ding's mistake.


After beating Ding Liren, Gukesh (18 year 8 months 14 day) became the youngest world chess champion, beating the record previously held by Garry Kasparov (22 years 6 months 27 days).


Gukesh is also the second world champion from India after Viswanathan Anand, who won the title four times.
