Bengaluru: Javokhir Sindarov says he is preparing for the strongest version of world champion Gukesh Dommaraju rather than reading into recent results as the Uzbek prodigy gears up for the youngest World Chess Championship match in history.
The 20-year-old secured a shot at the crown by winning this year's Candidates Tournament, adding to the World Cup title he captured earlier in the season and cementing his place among a new generation reshaping elite chess.
