Pragg, Erigaisi make cut; Carlsen out
Hindustan Times Ranchi
|July 18, 2025
LAS VEGAS: Grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa took down world number one Magnus Carlsen en route the top-bracket quarterfinals along with Arjun Erigaisi at the USD 750,000 Freestyle Grand Slam Tour here.
Praggnanandhaa continued the recent trend of Indian players outsmarting Carlsen and sent the Norwegian’s campaign haywire on Wednesday. Carlsen has in recent weeks also been beaten by reigning world champion D Gukesh, who is not competing here.
The 19-year-old Praggnanandhaa was in his elements as he effectively deployed his pieces right from the word go and even though Carlsen got some chances, Praggnanandhaa crashed through with some imaginative manoeuvres.
