A 16-year-old Tetris prodigy has defeated a seven-time world champion to become king of classic Tetris.
Joseph Saelee, of Clovis, California, defeated Jonas Neubauer, of Highland Park, California 3-0 in the grand final of the Classic Tetris World Championship (CTWC) at Portland, Oregon.
The CTWC revolves around the 1989 NES version of Tetris, which came out 13 years before Saelee was born. Saelee beat Neubauer to the top spot in a final 32-bracket seeded tournament, which took place on Sunday after a day of qualifying rounds.
