At this point in his career, Sheva had already experienced a lot of high-level tournaments. Not the highest, of course, but it was still a strong one that could suffocate any ordinary GM outside. The boy thought that he had seen everything, and yet, the screen in front of him—the content in it, to be more specific—was still enough to make the boy dumbfounded at what he saw.
There, he noticed that out of the four games played today, every one of them ended up with anything but a draw.
Yeah, besides him, Gukesh, Arjun Erigaisi, and Vincent Keymer were able to steal a full point against their respective opponent.
The first one ended up the quickest. Sheva didn't know how Gukesh did it, but the Indian prodigy managed to snatch the first win of the tournament from Jorden Van Foorest in a quick 1 hour and 12 minutes. Hell, the game lasted for only 21 moves, and the final position was quite nasty.
