Round 6 of the Sharjah Masters saw Dommaraju Gukesh taking down former sole leader Haik Martirosyan with the white pieces. Sam Sevian and Grigoriy Oparin also won on Monday and are now sharing the lead with Gukesh. Twelve players stand a half point back, including Uzbek rising star Nodirbek Yakubboev, who upset top seed Parham Maghsoodloo in what turned out to be an eventful sixth round. | Photos: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/shjmasters/">Tournament’s Facebook page</a>
Alexey Sarana became the 2023 European champion after signing a 7-move draw with co-leader Kirill Shevchenko. That draw meant both players had secured at least shared first place, but still had to wait to see if someone else would join them on a final 8½/11 score. Out of the chasers, only Daniel Dardha managed to catch up with the leaders. Tiebreak criteria were used to decide the final placements. In the end, Sarana grabbed gold, Shevchenko took home silver and Dardha was awarded the bronze. | Photos: European Chess Union
