author:Bright Net

On November 9, the first match of the semi-finals of the 26th LG Cup World Chess Championship was played between two Chinese chess players. Yang Dingxin beat Mi Yuting in the middle of the white set and took the lead in advancing to the final. He will compete with the semi-final winners of Ke Jie and Shin Jin-chan for the LG Cup.

In 2019, Yang Dingxin once won his first individual world championship in the 23rd LG Cup Sanban Final, winning his first individual world championship by defeating Chinese player Shi Yue 2-1 in the 23rd LG Cup Sanban chess final. Coming to the 26th LG Cup, Yang Dingxin played well. In this semi-final with Mi Yuting, Yang Dingxin took charge of Bai and slowly tuzhi in the prologue stage. And Mi Yuting may be eager to win, too hasty, and two bad hands under 55 and 59. With Yang Dingxin calmly coping, Mi Yuting lost again in 101 hands, which also made the situation fall to Yang Dingxin's side early. After eating three sons in 130 hands, Yang Dingxin basically locked in the victory. After that, Mi Yuting did not find a chance to turn the tables and conceded defeat in 162 hands.

After winning the LG Cup in 2019, Yang Dingxin was eliminated by the Korean chess player Bian Xiangyi in the subsequent 24th LG Cup 32 stage, continuing the myth that the LG Cup is difficult to defend. In the following year, Yang Dingxin lost to Park Tinghuan again. Now Yang Dingxin has finally returned to the LG Cup final after two years, and he will meet the opponent of the final tomorrow. The next semi-final will be held on the 10th, and if Ke Jie defeats Shin Zhenchen, it will allow the LG Cup champion to stay in China in advance.
