World No. 4 Arjun Erigaisi Set To Compete At Norway Chess 2025
Abu Dhabi International Chess Festival: Indian Grandmaster Arjun Erigaisi is set to debut at the Norway Chess 2025, one of the top chess events in Europe which will be played from May 26 to June 6 at Stavanger. At just 21 years old and ranked World No. 4, Erigaisi brings youthful ambition and exceptional talent to one of the most prestigious tournaments on the chess calendar.
Arjun’s journey to the top has been nothing short of phenomenal. His breakout year began in 2022 when he clinched several high-profile victories. In January, he won the prestigious Tata Steel Chess Challengers, and by March he was crowned the Indian National Champion. That summer, he dominated the 28th Abu Dhabi International Chess Festival, showcasing his ability to thrive in various formats. To cap off the year, Arjun claimed victory in the Tata Steel Chess India Blitz, solidifying his reputation as a rising star.
The momentum carried over into 2023, where Arjun continued to impress. In March, he emerged as the outright winner of the Sharjah Masters, and later in the year, he reached the quarterfinals of the World Cup.
