After his first round win against Pentala Harikrishna Bu Xiangzhi also won with White against Vassily Ivanchuk. In an interesting game that for a long time had been equal the 30-year old Chinese succeeded in the endgame.
After beating Ding Liren with the Scotch Opening in round 1, Ian Nepomniachtchi also beat Wang Yue with the Scoth. However, for a long time the game seemed to be headed for a draw but then Wang Yue mishandled the endgame and lost.
The third winner of the third round was Pentala Harikrishna. He played against Ding Liren and they discussed a heavily analysed and complicated line of the Open Spanish. When the theoretical duel was over Ding Liren committed a number of inaccuracies and allowed the Indian Grandmaster to win the game with a nice tactical idea.
