Very interesting player, looking at a few of his wins it seems like he often emulates the Carlsen water-from-a-stone style of grinding out "boring", equal endgames until his opponent cracks. A young player with the willingness to study technique and endgame fundamentals to this level is extremely rare -- it will be interesting to watch his growth and see if he burns out like many of the other prodigies like Negi or Joshua Waitzkin or if he intends to join the ranks of the super GMs [0].
