World Chess Championship: D Gukesh Plays Out Easy Draw, Scores Remain Tied
Indian challenger D Gukesh yet again proved equal to the task with defending champion Ding Liren of China as the 10th game of the World Chess Championship match between them ended in a draw without much excitement in Singapore on Saturday. It was by far the easiest of the game with black pieces for Gukesh as the position played itself out of a London system game wherein Ding Liren took no risks and was also apparently happy with the drawn result. The seventh consecutive draw -- and eighth of the match -- left both players on an identical tally of 5 points each, still shy of 2.5 points in order to win the championship.
