The 45th World Chess Olympiad was underway in Budapest, Hungary that was watched avidly by chess lovers around the world. India today created a world record winning twin golds for both men and women category emerging at the top of the table.
Wow what a moment for India! Extremely proud of the young guys who made our dreams come true! Hearty congratulations to both the teams and especially the local Chennai boy Gukesh Dommaraju and Arjun Erigaisi who are both under world top 5. India easily outclassed Russia, China and the USA. One more Chennai boy Pragnaanandaa and Gukesh are both under 20 years. Prag’s sister Vaishali Rameshbabu is a member of the women’s contingent. Siblings on world record to have a ranking below world top 20. Me a mere follower of Chess developments here, nothing more 😀 The wins highlight the soft power that is India that conquers the world with holistic means such as Yoga, Meditation, Chess, Spirituality, Classical art forms along with world’s best and No.1 nutritious and yummy cuisine!
We have to keep in gratitude the chess academies of India that made this feat possible in the first place with their right grooming. Diamonds do need polishing with cutting edge technology.
