The grand battle of the youngsters in chess HAS ARRIVED.

The world championship is a 14-game head-to-head match with long time controls and months of preparation. The reigning champion, Gukesh D, who's had a tough year, is facing the Uzbek phenom who completely dominated the Candidates tournament in Cyprus earlier this year. Javokhir Sindarov is on a tear, having had the best ~12 months of his career. But Gukesh has been here before, and winning tournaments is a different thing than a one-on-one match with an extremely well-prepared opponent.

If drawn, or if the score is 7-7 at the end of the 14 games, the players play a tiebreak to determine the winner.
