Chennai GM 2025: Pranesh Clinches Challengers Crown; Arjun Erigaisi Among Masters’ Trio Of Runners-up
GM Leon Luke Mendonca: Grandmaster (GM) M. Pranesh held on to win the Challengers title in the Chennai Grandmasters 2025, earning the opportunity to compete in the Masters section next year, despite a final-round setback against IM Harshavardhan GB.
The 19-year-old had built enough of a cushion going into the last day to edge out GM Abhimanyu Puranik, GM Adhiban Baskaran, and GM Leon Luke Mendonca, who all failed to capitalise on slip-ups elsewhere.
In the Masters, GM Vincent Keymer wrapped up an already-secured crown in style, defeating GM Ray Robson with black pieces to finish a commanding tournament run. Arjun Erigaisi was among three players sharing second place, joining GM Karthikeyan Murali and GM Anish Giri on the podium.
