57th Biel GMT R1: Vaishali outplays Jonas

R Vaishali made an impressive start at 57th Biel Chess Festival GMT 2024. She outplayed Jonas Buhl Bjerre (DEN) in the Challengers section. Her well-placed knights caused knightmare for his opponent. An incorrect attack on the knight only helped them improve their position and later win the game. R Praggnanandhaa could not follow through after a thematic knight sacrifice for two pawns on the kingside against Abhimanyu Mishra (USA). Four Indians - GM Koustav Chatterjee, GM Surya Sekhar Ganguly, GM Krishnan Sasikiran and GM Harsha Bharathakoti have made a perfect start 2/2 in the MTO.
