True champions can win on demand. Gukesh is only 18 years old, but he won the Candidates earlier this year and now won the Olympiad with his team, scoring an amazing 9 out of 10 on the first board. His performance earned him 30 rating points and he is now 5th in the world rankings, just behind Nakamura, Erigaisi (!) and Caruana. In the penultimate round, India beat the USA and our game of the week is Gukesh-Caruana, another win on demand, securing two gold medals.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with White?
