FIDE World Cup 7.1: Kosteniuk close, Duda holds Carlsen

Alexandra Kosteniuk won a rollercoaster game against Aleksandra Goryachkina to put her a draw with the white pieces away from winning the 2021 FIDE Women’s World Cup. The first games of both semi-finals in the overall World Cup were drawn, with Jan-Krzysztof Duda finding some nice ideas to hold Magnus Carlsen to a draw with the black pieces. A curiosity of the day was that Fedoseev-Karjakin and the women’s 3rd place match Tan Zhongyi-Muzychuk were identical for the first 12 moves, though the balance was never seriously upset in either game.
