World Champion Gukesh Defeats Magnus Carlsen Norway Chess
At the 2025 Norway Chess tournament, reigning World Chess Champion Gukesh Dommaraju defeated the world number one Magnus Carlsen in a stunning classical chess match, marking Gukesh's first victory over Carlsen in this format. The match ended dramatically with Carlsen slamming his fist on the table out of frustration, a rare public display of emotion from the normally composed five-time world champion. Gukesh, 19, described the win as a 'lucky day' and expressed respect for Carlsen, who admitted confusion over Gukesh's tactics despite acknowledging the quality of play. The incident sparked widespread discussion on sportsmanship, with some criticizing Carlsen's reaction while others empathized with the pressure faced by elite players. The victory tightened the tournament standings and further established Gukesh's rising prominence in the chess world, with notable figures including Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulating him. Despite the loss, Carlsen remains the top-ranked player globally, and the event highlighted the intense competitive rivalry and emotional stakes at the highest levels of chess.
