Magnus within striking distance | Round 10

Magnus Carlsen beat Parham Maghsoodloo in Round 10 of the Tata Steel Masters to pick up a 3rd win in four games and move within a point of 18-year-old leader Nodirbek Abdusattorov with three rounds to go. Gukesh made it two wins in a row after a wild clash with Praggnanandhaa, while Vincent Keymer let another winning rook endgame slip, this time against Jorden van Foreest.

Round 10 of the Tata Steel Masters in Wijk aan Zee featured two wins.
