The prestigious Candidates Tournaments, a crucial step in the FIDE World Championship cycle, are reaching their climax. This year’s event showcases eight of the world’s elite chess players battling it out in a demanding double round-robin format across fourteen intense rounds of classical chess.
As we enter Tuesday’s penultimate round, the tournament hangs precariously in the balance for Javokhir Sindarov. A draw in his upcoming game, playing with the black pieces against Anish Giri, would be enough to secure him the coveted tournament victory.
