Hero of Day One at the World Cup
This one is a bit late. But during the first day of the first round, Ugandan IM Arhur Ssegwanyi (ELO 2357) drew Dutch GM Anish Giri (ELO 2793) in 158 moves! Giri had an advantage of a pawn through a great deal of it, but Ssegwanyi played tough defense, and the game was drawn when they reached bare kings. PGN below the fold.
