Ian Nepomniachtchi and Fabiano Caruana are tied in first place after nine rounds of rapid chess at the Grand Chess Tour in Zagreb. Former co-leader Vishy Anand failed to keep up with his colleagues, as he was defeated by Dommaraju Gukesh in their first-ever official confrontation. With 18 rounds of blitz to go, the one player standing a single point behind the leaders is Magnus Carlsen, who impressed on Friday by ending the rapid section with two consecutive, remarkable wins. | Photo: Lennart Ootes
