Tan Zhongyi wins with black and is the third player to the candidates! So consistent! Not a good day for Lei Tingjie who must be regretting yesterday's draw offer now. #FIDEWorldCup
🇨🇳 Tan Zhongyi beats Lei Tingjie 🇨🇳 with a 1.5–0.5 score to clinch the 🥉 bronze medal — and a spot at the next Women’s Candidates! ♟️🔥 #FIDEWorldCup
Another draw for Humpy and Divya. Good result for Divya who was black today, she is young and energetic which may be good for the tie-breaks. But, at the same time, Humpy IS the reigning World Rapid Champion. Looking forward to a super interesting one tomorrow! #FIDEWorldCup
