In a stunning upset, chess legend Magnus Carlsen has reportedly lost to 9-year-old Bangladeshi prodigy Ryan Rashid Mugdha during an online Bullet Brawl match. The match, which took place on January 18, saw Carlsen resign after 50 moves, leading to a significant drop in his rating. Coach Naim Haque allowed Mugdha to use his account, as the young talent lacks an official title. The game turned when Carlsen made a rare mouse slip, inadvertently moving his queen into a vulnerable position. This unexpected victory has sent shockwaves through the chess community.
