New Delhi: Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, on Sunday lauded 18-year-old Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa, calling him “incredible” for winning against world no. 1 Magnus Carlsen and no. 2 Fabiano Caruana in classical chess at the 2024 Norway Chess tournament.
The Indian Grandmaster beat Caruana in Round 5 after defeating five-time world champion Carlsen in Round 3 in the chess competition in Stavanger, Norway.
“Incredible Praggnanandhaa!,” said Gautam Adani, in a post on the social media platform X.com.
“Beating both World no. 1 Magnus Carlsen and no. 2 Fabiano Caruana in classical chess at #NorwayChess is mindblowing. You’re on a roll and still just 18! Keep the tricolour flying high. All the very best,” added the Adani Group Chairman.
Defeating the champions made the teen sensation among the top 10 in the International Chess Federation’s world ranking.
