D Gukesh climbed the ranks and created history after history for reason. He makes a steady progress, plays human chess, makes good decisions on the board. In the first round, he made a great save against his nemesis - Nodirbek Abdusattorov (UZB). In Round 2, he exchanged his queen for three minor pieces of Harikrishna within first 20 moves. He beautifully played the rest of the game and won it convincingly. In the third round, Gukesh had a great decisive advantage against Alexander Grischuk. However, the teenager pushed the pawn a bit early which lacked support. The three-time World Blitz champion, escaped with a draw.
