← Queen’s Gambit Accepted

Giri, A. – Carlsen, M.

2785 2016 · Draw

Anish Giri, the Dutch grandmaster famous for his rock-solid defensive play, meets Magnus Carlsen in a Queen’s Gambit Accepted. Giri is (in)famous — he jokes about it himself — for drawing all 14 of his games at the 2016 Candidates Tournament, an extraordinary feat of resilience that left him without a win or a loss. Across the board sits Carlsen, the reigning World Champion with an obsessive drive to crack exactly these kinds of impenetrable fortresses. A game that perfectly captures the eternal tension between solidity and creative genius.
