FINAL SECONDS OF THE MATCH AND DUBOV COMING OUT ON TOP STORY: The 2020 Lindores Abbey Rapid Challenge went all the way to a tiebreaking Armageddon match where Russian Daniil Dubov finally emerged champion after beating Hikaru Nakamura of the United States. The two speed chess specialists tied in their first match on the third day of the final, but Dubov came back to win the second match over the American who was favoured to win the day. Nakamura was not having it and roared back to take match 3 before the rivals drew again in the fourth to set up an Armageddon clash to settle the score. Dubov took an early lead in the deciding match but struggled to seal the deal as Nakamura held on and tried to come back to life. In the end it was white over black when Nakamura saw no exit and finally threw in the towel with Dubov having just over 30 seconds left on the clock. The 24-year-old champion walked away with a $45,000 dollar prize and a place at the table for the $300,000 dollars Magnus Carlsen Chess Tour Grand Final. (Production: Kurt Michael Hall)
