El GM Anish Giri ejecutó una obra maestra posicional para derrotar al GM Fabiano Caruana y hacerse con el segundo puesto en solitario en el Torneo de Candidatos de la FIDE 2026 tras la novena ronda. El GM Javokhir Sindarov podría haber logrado una victoria récord —la sexta—, pero cometió un desliz ante el GM Matthias Bluebaum y vio reducida su ventaja a 1,5 puntos. Por otra parte, el GM Praggnanandhaa Rameshbabu desperdició una posición ganadora frente al GM Wei Yi, mientras que el GM Andrey Esipenko sobrevivió a una larga y ardua batalla planteada por el GM Hikaru Nakamura.
Las GMs Zhu Jiner y Vaishali Rameshbabu lideran el Torneo de Candidatas de la FIDE 2026 con 5,5 puntos después de nueve rondas. Vaishali derrotó a su compatriota, la GM Divya Deshmukh, y Zhu venció a la GM Kateryna Lagno, sumando así su segunda victoria consecutiva. La GM Anna Muzychuk tuvo una buena oportunidad de infligir una tercera derrota consecutiva a la GM Tan Zhongyi, pero la partida terminó en tablas, al igual que el encuentro entre la GM Aleksandra Goryachkina y la GM Bibisara Assaubayeva.
