Prodigy, Youngest IM ever, first place in ChessKid National Invitational, Trained with Gary Kasparov, Youngest American Expert/Master. Who is this you are definintly asking, Abhimanyu Mishra. Oh and that's not it YOUNGEST GM EVER. Abhimanyu Mishra has had a wonderful career so far at only 12 years 4 months 7 days beating Sergey Karjakin who was 12 years 7 months. I am sure that this wonderful player has a lot more firsts ahead of him in his career ( It seems he has made most of them😆).

                            Training with Gary Kasparov for three days at a training camp

Sergey Karjakin who held the record for 19 years said this about Abhimanyu Mishra:

                                         "Somehow I am quite philosophic about this because I felt like it has been almost 20 years and it is really too much! It had to be broken. Sooner or later I was sure that it will happen. I was completely sure that one of the Indian guys would do it much earlier. Somehow I was very lucky that it didn't happen.

Yes, I am a little sad that I lost the record, I don't want to lie, but at the same time I can only congratulate him and it's no problem. I hope that he will go on to become one of the top chess players and it will be just a nice start to his big career. I wish him all the best." 

He got the GM title by winning the Vezerkepzo GM Mix 2021. Here are the standings.

Here is the list of the top ten youngest GM's.

               

He has met many top GM's such as Maxim Dlugy.

Here is a sweet victory of his against Zoltan Varga.

We have found in this week that anyone can play chess. Just yesterday an 88 year old chess player got the Fide Master title.

Conclusion: Chess is a game for all ages.

We all know that Abhimanyu Mishra has a lot more firsts ahead of him(Maybe even becoming world champ or challenger).
