Explanation:
Statement I is not correct :Gukesh Dommaraju did not become the world's youngest winner by defeating Russian player Ian Nepomniachtchi in the finals of the 45th Chess Olympiad held in 2024. Instead, he became the youngest undisputed World Chess Champion at the age of 18 by defeating China's Ding Liren in the 2024 FIDE World Chess Championship held in Singapore . In the 45th Chess Olympiad, Gukesh led India to its first-ever gold medal and won the individual gold on Board 1, but there was no final match against Nepomniachtchi .
Statement II is correct . Abhimanyu Mishra, an American chess prodigy, holds the record for becoming the world's youngest ever Grandmaster. He achieved this title on June 30, 2021, at the age of 12 years, 4 months, and 25 days, breaking the previous record held by Sergey Karjakin.
