China’s Ding Liren struck back against Gukesh Dommaraju on Monday in the 12th game of their $2.5m world championship match in Singapore, one day after the feisty Indian teenager appeared to have taken command of a deadlocked best-of-14-games showdown with a dramatic Game 11 win.
The decisive result after 39 moves over nearly four hours signaled a dramatic turnaround for the 32-year-old defending champion from Zhejiang province, who had looked visibly shaken after walking into a one-move blunder that cost him a crucial game less than 24 hours earlier.
