    World Chess Championship Final Match: World No.4 Arjun Erigaisi beat compatriot Vidit Gujrathi after five hours of end-to-end action in the opening round of the Chennai Chess Grand Masters 2024 in Chennai on Monday to mark a positive start. Among other Indians, Aravindh Chithambaram was held to a draw while Maxime Vachier-Lagrave of France beat Iran's Parham Maghsoodloo to also start the event on a winning note.

    Erigaisi, participating in his first home tournament since touching the historic 2800 ELO Rating, will be aiming to replicate the achievements of last year’s winner D. Gukesh, who used the triumph at this competition to propel himself into the Candidates, eventually earning the right to challenge Ding Liren of China the World Chess Championship Final Match.
