Bangladeshi International Master (IM) Mohammad Fahad Rahman, a student of Sonargaon University’s Fashion Design Department, has achieved his second Grandmaster (GM) norm. He secured the milestone through an outstanding performance at the Fubi Academy Norm Chess Tournament held in Istanbul, Turkey. Competing in a round-robin format, Fahad scored seven points out of nine games, remaining undefeated and emerging as the tournament champion.
Fahad had previously earned his first GM norm at the Hanoi Grandmasters Chess Tournament in Vietnam in March 2024. His latest success follows years of consistent participation in both domestic and international events. In a prior tournament, he narrowly missed achieving a norm in the final round, but this time he maintained composure and confidence to secure victory. A crucial win in the eighth round against Iranian International Master Pour Agha Bala Amirreza, rated 2453, paved the way for his success.
Sonargaon University expressed deep pride in Fahad’s achievement, stating that his success will inspire other students and strengthen Bangladesh’s presence in the international chess arena.
