Indian Grandmaster D Gukesh is on a mission to become the world's number one chess player, a title currently held by Magnus Carlsen for over 14 years. Gukesh has been steadily climbing the FIDE rankings, reaching a career-best world No. 3 position in February 2025. However, he has faced a decline in performance since then, with occasional flashes of brilliance, including victories against Carlsen. Gukesh expressed his ambition to become the world No. 1 during a recent interaction with a fan on X, stating, "I know I will give my absolute best for it, but whether or not it happens, I would be happy with the effort I put in.
