D. Gukesh win over Ding, securing the title of the youngest world Chess champion in history. Gukesh Dommaraju triumphed over Ding Liren in the pivotal Game 14 of the World Chess Championship on Thursday. This victory marked Gukesh as the youngest world Chess champion in history, achieving this title at the age of 18.
In this decisive match, Gukesh played with the black pieces while Liren took the white. The Indian player commenced the game with a robust strategy; however, Liren responded effectively after several lengthy deliberations, placing significant pressure on Gukesh’s advancing bishop. Following an extended pause, Gukesh ultimately decided to retreat his bishop on the 13th move, which placed his chances of victory in a vulnerable position.
In the 17th move, Liren shifted the momentum in his favor by retreating his beleaguered knight and launching a counterattack with his dark-squared bishop, leaving Gukesh in deep thought once more. The endgame commenced with Liren enticing Gukesh into a Queen exchange. Once Gukesh acquiesced, it became evident that Liren was aiming solely for a draw to trigger a tie-breaker.
As the game appeared to be progressing towards a draw, Liren unexpectedly made a significant error in the 55th move by advancing his rook to f2, a mistake that Gukesh quickly recognized. This led to a king-and-pawn endgame, culminating in the defending champion’s resignation and Gukesh’s victory. This outcome also marked India’s second world chess champion.
Following the surprising defeat, Liren remarked, “It took me a while to realize I blundered.”
“I believe I played my best tournament of the year. While I could have performed better, given the circumstances of yesterday, the final result is fair. I have no regrets.”
I appreciate your support. I will persist in my efforts.
In a heartfelt moment, Gukesh expressed, “When he played Rf2, I was unaware at first. Upon realizing it, I experienced the most remarkable moment of my life.”
“We are all familiar with Ding. He has been among the greatest players in history for many years. Witnessing his struggles and the immense pressure he endured, along with the determination he displayed… to me, he embodies what it means to be a world champion. He fought valiantly, and I extend my sympathies to Ding and his team. I must first express my gratitude to my opponent; this experience would not have been the same without him.
“I have been dreaming of and anticipating this moment since I was six or seven years old. Every chess player aspires to experience this, and to be among them is… I am truly living my dream. I want to thank God; this entire journey, from the Candidates to this point, has only been possible through divine intervention.
“I am deeply grateful to all those who have supported me throughout this journey. I wish to thank everyone, but the emotions I am experiencing right now are overwhelming… I might say something foolish [laughs].
“Representing my country… Eleven years ago, the title was taken from India. When I watched in 2013, gazing into the glass box, I thought it would be incredible to be there one day. A decade ago, I dreamed of reclaiming the title. There is nothing more fulfilling than this,” he concluded.
