Gukesh's victory marks a significant milestone not only for him but also for India, as he is the second Indian to win the title, following Viswanathan Anand. Gukesh secured the championship in a dramatic final game, breaking the previous record held by Garry Kasparov, who was 22 when he won the title in 1985.
