Both Ding Liren and Gukesh are participating in the Chess Olympiad. India had no problems with Iceland. China defeated Chile 3,5:0,5 but that draw was special for Chile and for GM Cristobal Henriquez because it was against the World Champion GM Ding Liren himself.

GM Cristobal Henriquez said, “To play with the world champion is beautiful, to draw with him even more. One of the most wonderful days of my chess career.”
