Chessable Masters 11: Magnus in the final
Magnus Carlsen is in the final of the Chessable Masters after beating Ding Liren twice with the black pieces on the way to a 2.5:0.5 victory. It means the World Champion has now beaten the world numbers 2 and 3 in consecutive matches, with the identity of his final opponent yet to be decided. A single loss by Anish Giri – his only setback in the 29 games he’s played in the event – was enough to ensure Ian Nepomniachtchi took the match to a decider on Wednesday.
