Joins Raja Rithvik in lead as teenagers shine
Teenagers called the shots as Grandmaster D. Gukesh jolted Surya Shekhar Ganguly to join International Master R. Raja Rithvik in the lead with three straight victories on the opening day of the AICF World Cup qualifier on Wednesday. On a day when 18-year old GM P. Iniyan punished a winless B. Adhiban, none of the top four seeds played to their seedings. Gukesh, 14, warmed up with wins over Rahul Singhania and C.R.G. Krishna before checkmating Ganguly in a topsy-turvy battle.More Related News
