Hindustan Times|November 12, 2024
Aravindh Chithambaram lit up the Chennai Grand Masters, finishing ahead of a field that comprised three of the world's top 15 players - Levon Aronian, Vidit Gujrathi and India's highest-ranked player, Arjun Erigaisi, for his first classical Super tournament title.
Aravindh wins Chennai Grand Masters chess title

After five consecutive draws in the first five rounds, the 25-year-old Indian scored a massive win over Arjun and followed it up with another win against Parham Maghsoodloo in the final round to find himself in a three-way tie for first place with Arjun and Aronian.

In the tiebreaks that followed, Arjun and Aronian won a game each in blitz and Aronian holding a draw with Black in the Armageddon was enough for the Armenian-American GM to see off Arjun. It was then down to Aravindh and Aronian. The Indian held his own against the former world No 2, winning both his blitz games to walk away with the title.
