With five rounds still to come, the world number one is followed by Praggnanandhaa on 8.5 points while a distant fourth now is Alireza who remained on 6.5 following his loss.<br \/>\nCaruana on five is in fifth spot while Ding Liren is clearly not enjoying the event with just 2.5 points to his credit.<br \/>\nIn the women\u2019s event being held simultaneously, R Vaishali continued her dream run and defeated Tingkie Lei of China in the Armageddon game to keep her lead on 10 points.<br \/>\nAnna Muzychuk is the closest to the Indian and is a full point behind after defeating Pia Cramling of Sweden in the Classical game.<br \/>\nWomen\u2019s world champion Wenjun Ju is third on 7.5 after scoring her fifth straight victory in the Armageddon over Koneru Humpy.<br \/>\nLei stands fourth on six points, two points clear of Humpy who seems to be struggling at the half-way mark. Cramling with three points is at the bottom of the tables.<br \/>\nPraggnanandhaa played out a Carlsenque endgame to grind down Caruana. The Catalan opening by the Indian saw exchange of pieces at regular intervals and the players reached a rook and knight endgame before the 40th move itself.<br \/>\nThe same side pawns even with an extra pawn is known to be a theoretical draw but Praggnanadhaa kept playing till Caruana collapsed on his 66th move and blundered his last pawn. It took 11 more moves for Praggnanandhaa to convert into a full point.<br \/>\nCarlsen had a similar outing and his was even easier draw that Alireza missed in the rook and pawns endgame. Carlsen had to wait for as many as 77 moves for Alireza to make a serious mistake and five moves later, the world number one had cruised to another victory from an equal endgame.<br \/>\nIn the women\u2019s section, Vaishali played out a draw under the Classical time control with Tingjie Lei and in another drawn endgame of the day, outplayed the Chinese in the ensuing knight and pawns endgame.<br \/>\nThis was Vaishali\u2019s second win under Armageddon in the tournament along with two wins in Classical. Her lone loss came against Wenjun Ju in the first round.<br \/>\nIt was a day that will be attributed to blunders from almost level endgames. Koneru Humpy was the other player on the receiving end as she could not find the best defensive path in a rook and pawns endgame against Ju in the Armageddon.<br \/>\nThough just a pawn less, Humpy missed a slightly tricky defense towards the final stages but instead ended up losing a rook with the clock ticking away.<br \/>\nResults round 5 men: R Praggnanandhaa (Ind, 8.5) beat Fabiano Caruana (Usa, 5); Ding Liren (Chn, 2.5) lost to Hikaru Nakamura (Usa, 10); Magnus Carlsen (Nor, 9) beat Firouzja Alireza (Fra, 6.5).<br \/>\nWomen: R Vaishali (Ind, 10) beat Tingjie Lei (Chn, 6); Wenjun Ju (Chn, 7.5) beat Koneru Humpy (Ind, 4); Anna Muzychuk (Ukr, 9) beat Pia Cramling (Swe, 3).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17854\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17854\" style=\"width: 300px\"
