Dubov on forfeits, masks, testing positive and playing in Berlin

Daniil Dubov forfeited his Round 7 game against Anish Giri while waiting for a PCR test, but when that came up negative he continued the Tata Steel Masters. Not for long, however, as just before Round 11 began it was announced that he’d tested positive and his remaining games, against Richard Rapport, Praggnanandhaa and Magnus Carlsen, would be forfeit wins for his opponents. Daniil then appeared on our chess24 broadcast and talked about how he’s feeling, what happened and what happens next.
