The 15-year old will join the Singapore International Open 2024 Group A division to be held on November 29 to December 5,
2024 at the Resorts World Sentosa Convention Centre, minutes from the FIDE World Championship Singapore 2024 match between World Champion Ding Liren and Challenger Dommaraju Gukesh.
