Carlsen Mocks Gukesh, Is He Threatened By India's Rise? | First Sports With Rupha Ramani | N18G

The chess world is witnessing one of its fiercest modern-day rivalries — World Champion Gukesh Dommaraju V World No.1 Magnus Carlsen. While their games have delivered pure brilliance on the board, it’s the off-board tension that’s setting this rivalry ablaze. From awkward handshakes to critical statements, Carlsen has repeatedly downplayed Gukesh’s achievements, questioning his potential and even labelling him a “weaker player.” But Gukesh, just 19, has responded the best way possible — through performance. After defeating Carlsen in classical format at Norway Chess, Gukesh is proving he belongs at the top by returning with a strong performance at the Grand Chess tour. As India's new chess generation rises—with stars like Praggnanandhaa and Arjun Erigaisi climbing the ranks—Carlsen’s jabs seem more like signs of insecurity than honest critique. Rupha Ramani with more.
