Nepomniachtchi, Caruana again won at Candidates 2022

Candidates has just passed half the way, but the challenge race seems to only take place between Nepomniachtchi and Caruana. These two players have 5.5 and 5 points respectively, while the third person Hikaru Nakamura gets 3.5 points.

During the raport game on June 25, Nepomniachtchi held the black army to prepare a variant to allow him to test the car to projection. But with adventure, rappers do not accept harmony but choose weaker water, and accept post -testing. The Russian player anticipates this ability, and does not take much time to convert the advantage into victory. He won after 43 countries, when he used less than a thought.

Nakamura was not satisfied when he saw Rapport's choice, when Nepomniachtchi made a breakthrough compared to the rear group.

Ding and Alireza Firouzja drew in game seven, extending the disappointing tournament. They are the top two seeds, but only have 3 and 2.5 points, respectively. Their chances of winning the tournament are almost gone, although there are still seven games ahead. But Ding is expected to stop the progress in Nepomniachtchi in the next game.
