Gukesh D, who has become the youngest world chess champion in history by defeating Ding Liran last December, has experienced a mixed journey in recent months. In his first tournament as a world champion at Tata Steel Chess at Vijak Ann Zee, he almost won before losing to Pragganandha in a tie-break.His performance led to a decline in many freestyle chess events. In the Visenhus leg of the Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Tour, he fought with zero win, 11 draws and six necklaces. He continued to face challenges in the superbat chess classic Romania in Paris Leg and Bucharest, where he won just one win, six draws and two defeats.However, Gukesh made a strong comeback in the Norway Chess. He won his first classical victory over world number one Magnus Carlsen, which led to a remarkable handful of Karlson. He won his first classical victory over fellow Indian player Arjun Erigasi. He finished close to Carlson throughout the tournament, finishing third.Go beyond the border with our YouTube channel.

Asked about Gukesh’s recent performance in Norway Chess, Anand upgraded his assessment.He said, “I think I will go to B to B. He was entitled to a D, but he got a lot of answers in some way (in Norway Chess). So it is a B that he survived that he survived and based on his words, I will give him a B,” he told Chess.com.Prior to Norway Chess, Anand gave Gukesh a lower class in his six -month assessment.“I think I would only call ‘de minus’, but Vijak on Zee is pulling him ‘D Plus’ may or ‘C Minus’,” he said.“He played very well (in Vijak on Zee). I mean, you always fear that after the World Championship, you suddenly have some emptiness. But in fact, for him, the first incident was extremely successful. The remaining year has been very prudent, which is probably normal. Everyone treats her differently. He is looking for his way. What would I put on a report card? I think ‘and need to improve’ is clear in a way; ‘Hard work should be done’ … something like this. He is still very strong and just needs to find the right connection again. ,

How do you assess the performance of Gukesh D in Norway Chess?
In a later interview, Anand discussed Gukesh’s performance in Norway Chess, noted areas for improvement.“In Norway Chess, Gukesh took a lot of suspicious decisions in his tricks and not in time. They did it in the earlier phase of the game. Some people criticized and I think criticism is appropriate. Some of it at least,” said the five -time world champion.“Two games that they lived with Magnus and Arjun are really suspicious. I will give you all this grant. But then let me ask the same question: How many people of the world can beat Arjuna and Magnus with these positions? There are many things to criticize their game. He was under pressure as some of them. The same argument has to be applied here.“I am disputed. On the one hand, I think we cannot just say that he played a great tournament because it ended at 50%. Also, with the fact that you have such defensive skills, it does not mean that you should depend on them all the time. For example, not to use them at all times in most countries.
