Fritz 17 - The giant PC chess program, now with Fat Fritz
The most popular chess program offers you everything you will need as a dedicated chess enthusiast, with innovative training methods for amateurs and professionals alike.
The Candidates are as exciting as always, with Nepomniachtchi in the lead after nine rounds, while Caruana, Giri and MVL follow half a point behind.
Caruana did a huge job in round eight, closing the gap to the leaders by beating MVL in a heavyweight theoretical Najdorf battle.
On the very next day Giri showed his best chess against Wang Hao, a lovely strategical performance which we will study in this week's Game of the Week show.
Most likely the Candidates will be a very tense affair until the very last day.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with White?
