D Gukesh vs Ding Liren, World Chess Championship Game 13 Highlights: D Gukesh Misses Big Chance As Ding Liren Draws Game 13
D Gukesh vs Ding Liren, FIDE World Chess Championship Game 13 Highlights: The 13th game of World Chess Championship between Indian Grandmaster D Gukesh and defending champion Ding Liren of China ended in a draw in Singapore on Wednesday. For Gukesh, the result would feel like a missed opportunity, with the Indian GM dominating the defending champions from China for most part of the tie. However, Ding made a game-saving move to deny Gukesh a 7-6 lead in the tie, ahead of the 14th and final game on Thursday. If the title cannot be decided after Game 14, Gukesh and Ding will face off in a tie-break to determine this year's world champion.

Without the f1 Bishop, the kingside attack is not as dangerous. White is slightly better but black is fine on the board.
The pattern of Ding spending a lot of time out of the opening, and Gukesh slowing down in the middlegame continues.#DingGukesh pic.twitter.com/y2U894Wjdc
