In the first game, Gukesh displayed his exceptional skills and strategic acumen. For most of the match, he was on the offensive, navigating the complexities of the board with ease.

Additionally, Hikaru Nakamura and Javokhir Sindarov of Uzbekistan played out a tense draw, while American Levon Aronian secured his first win against Vladimir Fedoseev of Slovenia in the ninth-place decider.
