As the chess world celebrates India's historic gold medal win at the 45th FIDE Chess Olympiad, I couldn't help but draw parallels with the captivating Netflix series, The Queen's Gambit.

Key takeaways from India's triumph: - Teamwork: Like Beth's alliances with fellow chess enthusiasts, India's team dynamic propelled them to victory. - Innovation: Adopting unconventional openings, like the Queen's Gambit, India outmaneuvered opponents. This victory inspires us to: - Foster collaboration and teamwork - Embrace creative problem-solving - Cultivate mental toughness Congratulations, Team India! #ChessOlympiad #QueensGambit #TeamIndia #Strategy #Innovation #Perseverance #Collaboration

🌟 Celebrating Our Chess Champions!🌟 India’s young chess prodigies are making waves on the global stage, bringing home gold and glory! Let’s take a moment to celebrate their incredible achievements: 🎉 D. Gukesh from Tamil Nadu became India’s youngest Grandmaster at just 12 years old and is now the youngest challenger for the world title, winning gold this year! His dedication and strategic brilliance are truly inspiring. 🏅 Arjun from Telangana also snagged gold and earned his Grandmaster title at the age of 14. His journey is a testament to hard work and perseverance. 👑 Our girls are shining too! Divya Deshmukh and Vantika Agarwal brought home double gold, showcasing their exceptional talent and determination. 👫 And let’s not forget the sibling duo from Tamil Nadu! The brother earned his Grandmaster title at 12, while the sister became India’s third woman Grandmaster. Their achievements highlight the power of family support and shared passion. However, it’s ironic that these remarkable achievements haven’t received the same media attention as cricket or other popular sports in India. Despite their world-class accomplishments, our chess champions often remain under the radar. This disparity highlights the need for broader recognition and support for diverse sports in our country. These young champions are not just winning titles; they are inspiring a new generation of chess enthusiasts. Let’s celebrate their success and cheer them on as they continue to make us proud! 🏆😊 #india #culture #success #management #motivation

India are the champions of the FIDE Chess Olympiad! Here’s a story of how an India-first mentality of players led us to this remarkable achievement. To give you some context, the chess Olympiad team consists of five players, and the respective associations must negotiate with these players to represent their country. Over the years, we’ve seen many players opting out of the Olympiad. For instance, Hikaru Nakamura recently chose not to be part of the USA team (had he played, it might have been a tough battle for India). India has always been able to assemble its strongest team for the competition and this year was no exception and this was a pivotal part in the success. Another example is Ding Liren, the current world champion, who decided to sit out against Gukesh during the India vs. China match to avoid revealing any strategies for his upcoming World Championship match. Gukesh, being the challenger of the world championship match, could have done the same, but he risked some of his personal glory in choosing to play the olympiad match. In the end, what truly matters is that we are the champions, and this is something every one of us can be proud of. #chess #olympiad #gukesh #chessolympiad2024 ChessBase India Chess.com Xplore by XLRI Kaushik Ghosh Sukanya Chatterjee

India and Chess. The two words you wouldn’t usually expect to dominate global headlines. But times have changed. From the ancient game of Chaturanga that originated in India in the 6th century, to the modern-day chessboard, India has always had a deep connection with the game. However, despite this rich history, we never truly held a commanding place in the world of “Shatranj” - except for one bright star, Vishwanathan Anand. For decades, he was our lone flag bearer on the global chess scene. But for the first time in history, India has clinched double gold in the Chess Olympiad, with both the men’s and women’s teams standing tall at the top of the podium. The Indian women’s team, led by champions like Vaishali, Vantika, Divya, Harika, and Tania, secured an incredible victory by defeating Azerbaijan to grab the gold. Meanwhile, the men’s team, with Gukesh, Arjun, and Praggnanandhaa, mirrored that triumph, dominating the competition and adding to India’s golden glory. The sheer class, strategy, and resilience our teams showcased on the global stage is something the world will remember for years to come. From having only one icon to producing an army of chess champions, India has truly arrived. Jai Hind! #chessolympiad2024 #championship #Indianleaders #globalwin #goldmedal
