In a final loaded with amazing tactics and stunning technique, GM Gukesh D. defeated GM Raunak Sadhwani by a seven-point margin to become the 2023 Junior Speed Chess Champion.
The epitome of the match was game nine of the 3+1 segment. In a wild King’s Indian Defense, Raunak found two brilliant moves in a row and promoted to a second queen, yet Gukesh’s kingside attack ultimately prevailed.
This incredible double-edged duel is our Game of the Day, with analysis by GM Rafael Leitao.
