A Future Grandmaster in the Making!

A special moment captured at the Prague Open 2025! 10-year-old Reyaansh Chakrabarty, the rising Australian chess star, stands alongside R Praggnanandhaa (L) and Aravind Chithambaram (R), two of the world’s brightest chess talents!

Reyaansh had an incredible tournament, gaining 60 Elo points and pushing his rating to 2241 at just 10 years old! This young prodigy is making waves, and his journey is just beginning.

A big thank you to Sounak Chakraborty for sharing this fantastic photo with Norths Chess Club!
