NAGPUR: India’s highest ranked chess player Arjun Erigaisi said that his “main aim is to have fun”.
It’s easy to say that but hard to implement, especially when your own countrymen are rightfully hogging limelight and graduated to the next level: R Praggnanandhaa reaching the World Cup final; Vidit Gujrathi clinching the FIDE Swiss GP and D Gukesh boosting his rating. The trio made it to the Candidates and Gukesh went a step further winning it.
