Miami, August 18

Young Indian Grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa beat Hans Nieman 2.5-1.5 in the third round to notch up a third straight win in the FTX Crypto Cup here today.

The 17-year-old Indian is on top of the standings with nine match points along with world No. 1 Magnus Carlsen, who beat Levon Aronian 2.5-1.5.

Praggnanandhaa bounced back after losing the first game to secure victories in the second and fourth games.

In the other matches, Alireza Firouzja edged out Anish Giri 4-3 in a tie-break, while Quang Liem Le defeated Jan-Krzysztof Duda 2.5-1.5.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
