    World Champion Gukesh: World Champion D. Gukesh caused another sensation in the chess world by defeating World No.1 and five-time champion Magnus Carlsen in the sixth round of the rapid section of the Grand Chess Tour's SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz Croatia here on Thursday.

    A few days after upsetting Carlsen at home in the Norway Chess 2025, Gukesh got the better of the Norwegian star once again, though this time in rapid chess, in Zagreb. This was the fifth consecutive win for the Grandmaster from Chennai and helped him take sole lead with 10 points.

    Jan-Krzysztof Duda drew his game against Wesley So and now sits in second place with 8 points. Fabiano Caruana finally broke through with his first win of the tournament, beating Nodirbek Abdusattorov with the black pieces in another Round 6 match-up.
