The thing that differentiates Prag from other youngsters is he is fearless, competitive but at the same time he is not over emotional. Belated Happy Birthday Praggnanandha🧡

[Shade]

The Way Pragg Completely Isolated his king First & Then in Endgame Slowly Limited the King's Squares..Slowly & Mercilessly Approaching Towards him.. What a Brilliant Win!!

[FGG]

Pragg plays so aggressively, he ensures he stays in control. 👏

[mihirneema]

Look how pragg rearranged the pieces while hikaru left abruptly 😅❤

[pandyaharshit]

After the game magnus came to prag and congratulated him and smiles is a pleasure moment watch
Even after the match prag says it's his best + belated happy birthday champ 🏆 be the next world champion 🥂

[sdpolls]

To beat Hikaru defence and Magus attack, someone needs a god level
Praggs got that God level

[LISANDRO]

Dominate performance by Pragg. Hikaro was on the defensive the whole game.

[IndranilFromIndia]

Pragg is beyond sensational beating Naka twice in rapids! He thoroughly deserves the crown.

[eugeniomoccia]

In the two tiebreaks, Praggnanandhaa literally crushed Nakamura (world No. 2), playing both games with an extra piece. Fantastic !

[alestarbronson]

0:31 Pragg unravels his coat and thinks, "time to play some serious game"
This is the moment sh** got serious for Hikaru

[Brooder]

Pragg is really setting himself apart as a Magnus caliber level player. I always see him win. Just a majorly impressive chess player. He'll be one of the legends.

[swastiksharmasayshi]

The way Pragg quickly glances at Nakamura after each move is so funny ❤

[jaguarwolf]

What a phenomenal plyr Pragg is turning out to be... Beating Hikaru is tough but the way he Dominated the whole game is simply amazing

[FallaciousRamblings]

I don't know about you guys, but I feel Prag eventually broke through that 2700 ceiling for good. He's so young this sounds extremely promising. Something's going on around that part of the world: Central Asia + India. So many promising youngsters are rising around there, so many of them seem to be able to reach that SuperGM status. This will be exciting to follow their rising (or dificulty in climbing) to the very top in the next few years.

[РустамТукенов-йу]

I have been saying for the last 2 years that among the Indian young players - in my opinion Pragg is the strongest. Despite the fact that Gukesh is number 1 in the ranking of Indian players

[JaiSriRam]

Belated Happiest Birthday Praggnanandha🎉You are my favourite chess player, You got the best character out there💞
May Bhagwan bless you with loads of Happiness🙏🕉️

[RaavananCreations]

Wow what a match 🎉
Congratulations prag bro 😎❤
Love from India 🎉
All the Best ❤

[JackDaniels]

Praggnannandhaa is going to be the future world champion in chess.

[himanshusingh]
