World Cup: Sindarov knocks out MVL, Ju escapes and wins

Magnus Carlsen, Hikaru Nakamura and Dommaraju Gukesh were among the players who advanced to round 4 after two classical games at the FIDE World Cup in Baku. The biggest upset of the round was achieved by Javokhir Sindarov, who knocked out Maxime Vachier-Lagrave by winning with black on Sunday. In the women’s section, world champion Ju Wenjun was inches away from being eliminated — however, she not only survived, but ended up winning against Ulviyya Fataliyeva. | Photo: chess.com / Maria Emelianova
