Do you know what Gukesh said when he was 12? "Never give up and always be confident- I want to be a World Chess Champion"!

Indeed you are right if we are discussing the FIDE World Chess Championship. At the time Ponomariov won his title, there where two different world championship titles. But this does not reduce in the least Ponomariov's accomplishment!

In any case, Gukesh has also done an amazing thing. Especially if one reflects on the road he took to come here and then win.
