EXCLUSIVE - Pragg on tactic to beat Carlsen twice, how mom's advice boosted his Norway Chess title

Praggnanandhaa added another glittering chapter to Indian chess history, becoming the first Indian to win the prestigious Norway Chess title after a remarkable late surge in Oslo. The 20-year-old Grandmaster sealed the crown with a final-round victory over Germany’s Vincent Keymer, completing one of the most memorable comebacks in the tournament’s history. Praggnanandhaa’s triumph is particularly significant given the quality of the field. The elite tournament featured World No.1 Magnus Carlsen, reigning world champion D Gukesh, Alireza Firouzja, Wesley So and Keymer, making it one of the strongest events on the international calendar. #Praggnanandhaa #Pragg #NorwayChess #MagnusCarlsen #Chess #IndianChess #ChessChampion #Grandmaster #ChessNews #ExclusiveInterview #NorwayChess2026 #Carlsen #SportsNews #MindGame #ChampionMindset We talk sport 24x7, 365 days a year.
