Los grandes maestros Fabiano Caruana y Javokhir Sindarov lideran el Torneo de Candidatos de la FIDE 2026 con 2,5 puntos tras tres rondas. Caruana ganó una miniatura tras un error grave del GM Wei Yi, y Sindarov sacrificó valientemente una pieza para vencer con las piezas negras al GM Praggnanandhaa Rameshbabu. Se registraron empates en los duelos entre el GM Hikaru Nakamura y el GM Anish Giri, y entre el GM Matthias Bluebaum y el GM Andrey Esipenko.
Las grandes maestras Bibisara Assaubayeva y Kateryna Lagno lideran el Torneo de Candidatas de la FIDE 2026 tras una tercera ronda frenética. La audaz apertura de Assaubayeva pareció volverse en su contra hasta que logró imponerse a la primera cabeza de serie, la GM Zhu Jiner, en medio de las complicaciones; por su parte, la GM Tan Zhongyi parecía tener la victoria asegurada ante Lagno tras sobrevivir a una partida de altibajos, solo para tropezar finalmente con un hermoso sacrificio ganador de caballo y dama.
