2799 2022 · Draw · View this game on Lichess

A clash of titans: Ding Liren, China’s most decorated chess player known for his deep positional understanding, faces Magnus Carlsen, five-time World Champion and arguably the greatest player of all time. By 2022, Ding was at the peak of his powers, on the verge of claiming the world title the following year — this Nimzo-Indian battle showcases two radically different approaches to balance and tension. Essential viewing to understand how the world’s elite navigate from the very first moves.
