D Gukesh Vs Ding Liren, FIDE World Chess Championship 2024: Check Head-To-Head Record
D Gukesh takes on Ding Liren in the final of the FIDE World Chess Championship 2024. Here are the head-to-head details
World no. 5 Gukesh, 18, had qualified for the tournament by winning the Candidates tournament earlier this year. Should the Indian manage to beat Lire in a best of 14-tie, the former will become the second World Champion in Chess from India after Viswanathan Anand.
D Gukesh vs Ding Liren head-to-head
D Gukesh and Ding Liren have faced each other five times. Liren has won two of those, whereas the other three were drawn. That means, Gukesh will be at his level best to beat the World Champion.
However, Gukesh has defeated Liren earlier this year at the Fischer Random format. But that won't be counted as the event was not held in the classical format which is being employed at the FIDE World Chess Championship 2024.
Moreover, if Gukesh manages to beat Liren, he will become the world champion and be awarded with $2,500,000.
