Praggnanandhaa to face Shankland after lone rest day
Hindustan Times West UP
|March 05, 2025
With a career-high world ranking of No. 8 as per the latest published list, Grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa will take on American Sam Shankland in the sixth round of the Prague Masters after a rest day on Tuesday.
Tied at the top spot with compatriot and friend Aravindh Chithambaram, Praggnanandhaa tried to break the defenses of his fellow countryman for a long time but only ended up with a draw.
The two are now on 3.5 points each out of a possible five.
Aravindh was surprised after his second win in the tournament. "I don't know what's happening to me here," said Aravindh, who has also beaten top seed Wei Yi of China in the tournament. The Indian, who has arrived big time into the elite circles, now will have to tackle the experienced Quang Leim Le of Vietnam in the next round.
