11/12/2024 – Another Frenchman in this penultimate classic round, but a draw this time unlike the first round, although Gukesh didn’t come far from victory. Ding Liren didn’t succumb to tension this time, as he did in the tenth round, and found the right defensive moves, after missing the calculation of a variant, which put him under extreme pressure. Tomorrow he will play with White for the final game, before possible rapid-fire ties if nobody wins. Photo: FIDE / Eng Chin An.
