Vaishali lone Indian to make world blitz knockout rounds
Hindustan Times Bengaluru|January 01, 2025
Magnus Carlsen returned to the tournament in jeans and played Hans Niemann, Vassily Ivanchuk audibly sobbed after a loss, 46th seed Aravindh Chithambaram defeated world No.3 Hikaru Nakamura and Daniil Dubov forfeited his game because he reportedly overslept – the penultimate day of the World Rapid and Blitz tournament (blitz section) wasn't short of drama.

BENGALURU:

It was also a day that saw Indian GM Vaishali Rameshbabu dominate the women's standings – with a stellar count of eight wins and three draws – after 11 rounds – to make the knockouts. She will face Zhu Jiner, who qualified for the knockouts in eighth place, in the quarter-finals. The 23-year-old was the only Indian to make the knockouts across the open and women's sections. She did so with a round to spare and is a full point ahead of the rest of the field.
