Caruana, F. – Ding Liren

2827 2018 · Draw

Fabiano Caruana, the Italian-American grandmaster who famously scored a stunning 6/6 at the 2014 Chess Olympiad with the United States team, takes on the formidable Ding Liren in this 2018 English Opening. The year 2018 was a landmark one for Caruana, as he challenged Magnus Carlsen for the World Championship in London, making every elite game of that period feel charged with extra significance. Ding Liren, known for his iron nerves and exceptional calculation, is never an easy opponent for anyone.
