Levon Aronian has beaten Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Magnus Carlsen and Ian Nepomniachtchi in three consecutive must-win situations. Today he defeated Carlsen and Nepo in consecutive games. While the World no.1 allowed the two-time World Cup winner to score a quick 27-move victory, against Nepo he had to grind in the endgame and wait till the former world championship contender blundered. Triveni Continental Kings are now tied with Ganges Grandmasters on 15/27 points. SG Alpine Warriors also have the same match points. However, they still have two matches left. On an eventful day, upGrad Mumba Masters defeated GG 3-0 (10-4) without losing a single game. The last four matches of the double round-robin stage start tomorrow with SG Alpine Warriors vs Chingari Gulf Titans from 3 p.m. local time, 4:30 p.m. IST. | Photo: Maria Emelianova
