01/12/2024 – Once again – and for once with White! – Ding Liren gains an advantage in the opening. But again, he lets it evaporate quickly. Even Gukesh senses how insecure the world champion is. The young contender refused to repeat for a third time the position offered to him by the Chinese on a platter, even though the Indian, like all the commentators, knew that the blacks were slightly worse off! Will the coming rest day allow Ding Liren to recover and regain his self-confidence? Photo: FIDE / Eng Chin An.
