‘Messi of Chess’ Faustino Oro becomes second youngest Grandmaster in history

‘Messi of Chess’ Faustino Oro becomes second youngest Grandmaster in history

Published by Webster

For much of his pre-teen years, the clock was the Argentinian prodigy’s fiercest rival. Every tournament, every move, every half-chance missed and every hard-fought win was a race against time to break the sport’s most coveted age record: becoming the youngest Grandmaster in chess history. For Faustino Oro, that record remained agonisingly out of reach, but he emerged with a consolation that is itself a slice of history on Sunday. At 12 years, 6 months and 26 days old, he became the second-youngest player ever to earn the Grandmaster title. The historic moment arrived at the Sardinia World Chess Festival in Italy, where Oro officially clinched his third and final GM norm. With that, his name was etched into the record books right behind American Abhimanyu Mishra, who had claimed the highest title in chess at 12 years, four months, and 25 days in July 2021. Nicknamed ‘Messi of Chess’, Oro is just the seventh player to accomplish this feat before turning 13, joining an elite list that includes Mishra, Sergey Karjakin, D Gukesh, Yagiz …

How tales of Chhatrapati Shivaji and Bajirao Peshwa inspired 9-year-old Anvi Hinge to become youngest Women’s Candidates Master in chess history | Chess News

Deepak Hinge didn’t tell his nine-year-old daughter Anvi that he was hoping for the impossible. When they boarded the flight to Alicante, Spain last month, he believed that the Women’s Candidates Masters (WCM) title for Anvi was still a few flights away. Maybe a few months, or even a few years. The shared dream of making her the youngest WCM player ever felt just that: a dream. At the time, Anvi’s Elo rating was hovering around the early 1600s, nearly 200 points below the threshold required for the WCM title. Deepak’s judgment was based on realism. He was already proud of the progress his young daughter had made in her still-budding chess career and the trip to Spain’s southeastern port city felt just like another tournament for them. But over the next nine days, Anvi turned uncertainty into triumph. Punching above her weight and her age, she played some of her best chess, recording six wins and amassing 6.5 points from nine rounds. That performance earned her a staggering 175 rating points, enough to breach …

4 min readApr 14, 2026 07:00 AM IST Likely to be picked for this June’s India T20I tour to Ireland, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi could become the youngest player to represent the country. The Indian Express understands that the selectors might give the 15-year-old the big break in the short series just before a white-ball tour of England. “He is in contention for the Ireland tour and the selectors have shortlisted his name along with those of many other players,” a source in the Indian cricket board confirmed. The left-hander, who has taken some of the best bowlers in the world to the cleaners in the last edition and continues in the same vein this year as well, has already hit a 26-ball 78 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, a 17-ball 52 against Chennai Super Kings and a 14-ball 39 against Mumbai Indians so far this season. He doesn’t seem overawed by reputation and has taken on the likes of Jasprit Bumrah – whom he hit for a six on the first ball he faced – and Josh …

One such highlight came in 1995, when late actor-filmmaker Dev Anand was honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award, recognising his unparalleled contributions to the film industry. Actor Juhi Chawla announced the award, saying, “The Lifetime Achievement Award is also being presented to, let me describe him, eyes twinkling with mischief, the characteristic shake of the head, the unusual swagger, a smile that drove the young women crazy, a romantic all the way, yes, it is Mr. Dev Anand.” While describing Dev Anand, Juhi also shared how the actor got his first role. Juhi said, “The time, 1940s, the setting, movie mogul Baburao Pai’s office, Pune. A shy young man stood hesitatingly outside the office, wondering how to make his way in. Suddenly, the movie mogul himself stepped out, but only for a moment. Before the …

Before becoming a chess outcast for pro-Putin comments, Sergey Karjakin was the OG prodigy who stopped Magnus Carlsen’s bid at becoming youngest Grandmaster

Before becoming a chess outcast for pro-Putin comments, Sergey Karjakin was the OG prodigy who stopped Magnus Carlsen’s bid at becoming youngest Grandmaster

Last week, a shock name made an appearance on the FIDE ratings list for March 2026. Sergey Karjakin, who had been persona non grata from the chess world for the past four years, was suddenly World no.10. Then, as social media outrage grew with some pointing out that he had defeated an eight-year-old kid in a privately-arranged match in Moscow to get back his “active” status, Karjakin was hastily removed with FIDE saying the event he had played in was not registered in time. Thus, Karjakin went back to being an “inactive” player as he has been since 2022 when FIDE banned him for six months for statements backing the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Karjakin is usually remembered these days — if he is remembered at all — for being the challenger to Magnus Carlsen in the 2016 World Chess Championship held in New York City or his comments in support of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

He said, “20 years of my life have been very tough. But I salute Ayesha for bearing it with me. In fact, Sanjay Leela Bhansali was so close to my family that he told me that I am saved just because of my wife, and if it was not for her, I would have been finished.” Talking about his son, Imaan Ismail Darbar, the composer shared how his youngest son …

For ‘Messi of Chess’ Faustino Oro, youngest GM landmark a mere checklist item on his way to bigger things

Published by Webster

In four days from now, a 12-year-old boy from Argentina will begin his final attempt at defying time and going where no one has ever been in chess history. Faustino Oro, fondly nicknamed the ‘Messi of Chess’ for his Argentinian roots and his mercurial rise at a young age, is just one norm away from being the world’s youngest grandmaster. None of the sport’s greatest practitioners – Magnus Carlsen, Garry Kasparov and Bobby Fischer – were this young when they became GMs. Carlsen was closest at 13, while Fischer was 15 and Kasparov 17 when they became grandmasters. D Gukesh, the youngest world champion in chess history, ran full pelt towards achieving the record. And missed by 17 days. The record is currently held by Indian-origin American GM Abhimanyu Mishra, who was 12 years, 4 months, and 25 days old when he became a grandmaster in 2021, thus lowering Sergey Karjakin’s record — which the Russian had held for 19 years — by more than two months. Oro’s final shot at making history as the …
