Anish Sarkar Becomes Youngest FIDE-rated Chess Player
At just three years, eight months, and 19 days old, he has claimed the title of the youngest FIDE-rated chess player. Anish debuted at the 1st All Bengal Rapid Rating Open 2024, where he scored an impressive 5 points from 11 games.
Just weeks later, Anish had the incredible opportunity to play against Grandmaster Arjun Erigaisi, India’s top player and world-ranked No. 4, during a rapid rating tournament. Though he initially did not qualify, a last-minute opening allowed him to participate as a substitute. This stroke of luck put Anish on a fast track, exposing him to high-level competition and igniting his drive to earn his first official rating.
