LAUSANNE: The supremely-gifted R Praggnanandhaa, Arjun Erigaisi and R Vaishali will be among five Indian participants in the upcoming 2024 FIDE World Rapid & Blitz Championships, the International Chess Federation (FIDE) said on Monday.
The prestigious event will be held in New York City from December 26-31 as the tournament enters North America for the first time ever.
Koneru Humpy and Dronavalli Harika are the other Indian competitors in the tournament which the FIDE claims is going to be the strongest edition ever with the world’s best players in action.
