FIDE World Cup Under: Eleven-year-old Chess prodigy Divi Bijesh of Kerala scripted another chapter in Indian chess history by clinching the FIDE World Cup Under-12 Girls Championship in Batumi, Georgia, becoming the first player from the state to win FIDE World Cup titles in both the Under-10 and Under-12 categories.

Representing India at the prestigious championship, Divi produced a commanding performance against a field of more than 85 of the world's leading young players, finishing with nine points from 11 rounds.

She seized sole lead after the seventh round and never relinquished it, before drawing her final-round game against Russia's Alisa Yunker to seal the world title.
