Faustino Oro, Argentina's golden boy, continues to impress

A bit over three years into his chess career, Faustino Oro, aged 10, continues to set record after record in Argentina. The “golden boy” (‘oro’ means gold in Spanish) became the youngest player to achieve an IM norm in history, as he broke the record previously set by Uzbek star Javokhir Sindarov. Oro is also referred to as “the Messi of chess”, since his incredibly quick ascent has created major expectations among Argentine chess fans! | Photo: Emmanuel Fernández / Clarín
