But the rounds continued and Gukesh never managed to outrun Ding. Several times he dominated, several times he had the advantage, sometimes benefiting from the incredible blunders of the Chinese who regularly fights with the clock, in vain. Although he found himself on the verge of crashing on several occasions, Ding Liren, who alternates strokes of genius and unexplained absences, has always managed to land on his feet. Beaten in the 11e round, he was able to react immediately to equalize in the 12th. This Wednesday, he once again dangerously flirted with the void before restoring the situation and obtaining a share of the points. A real miracle as Gukesh seemed to have found an advantageous position.
