Vietnam’s top chess player, Le Quang Liem, defeated his Slovenian rival, Anna Muzychuk, in his ninth game at the ongoing Tradewise Gibraltar Chess Festival in the UK.

Despite his failure against Chinese rival Hou Yifan with an Elo rating of 2605 in the eighth game, the international-accredited GM easily beat Anna on February 1 to rank seventh among top chess players with 6.5 points.  

Liem (2,714) will face Primarjan Negi from India in the 10th game – the last of the tournament. The game is very important for Liem, as Primarjan Negi (2688) has not lost any previous games against chess grandmasters such as S. Mamedyarov, P. Svidler and K. Sasikiran. 

A win will earn Liem a place in the top 5 of the tournament.
