He hasn't broken into the 2700 club yet, but Ding Liren is showing himself to be a force in Chinese chess. His impressive 8-3 score left him a point ahead of Yu Yangyi, a point and a half ahead of Ni Hua and two full points above Wang Yue in the 2012 Chinese Championship. Hou Yifan also participated, but finished with a disappointing 5-6 score. (TWIC coverage here.)
