The Indian super youngster who had just come here was, of course, Gukesh Dommaraju, the one who currently fought in the grandmaster section for the highest title of the tournament. Honestly, if anyone noticed his presence here, they would've been surprised, wondering why Gukesh was here instead of concentrating on his own game. After all, the race in the grandmaster section also reached the climax here, and the boy was one of the frontrunners who had the chance to win it all.
Yeah, the situation in the grandmaster section was crazy. Unlike in the open, where Muradli Muhammad was the sole leader followed by a bunch of grandmasters who were half a point away from the top, in this section, three players had the same 4 points out of 6 rounds. Besides Gukesh, the other two players next to him were also very strong players; Le Quang Liem from Vietnam, who was also the strongest player in the field, and Andrey Espinenko, the one who managed to beat him a few rounds ago.
