In the fourth round of the Super Chess Classic Romania 2026, Indian chess prodigy R Praggnanandhaa faced Dutch grandmaster Jorden van Foreest, resulting in a 35-move draw. This match marked Pragg's third draw in the tournament, alongside a notable victory against World Championship contender Javokhir Sindarov. Despite the draw, Pragg remains unbeaten and is currently half a point behind tournament leader Vincent Keymer. The game began with a Zukertort Opening but did not produce the excitement expected from such high-caliber players. After the match, Pragg reflected positively on his performance, acknowledging that while his first round was challenging, he has since played well. Meanwhile, Van Foreest's recent rise in the FIDE rankings, where he is now World No. 16, highlights his impressive comeback after a slump. Notably, Javokhir Sindarov has struggled in the tournament, failing to secure any wins in four rounds, a stark contrast to his previous form in the Candidates.
