Maintaining his reputation, Anand won the Armageddon early on Friday
The Indian ace still has to play Fabiano Caruana of the United States and ultra-solid Sergey Karjakin of Ukraine in the remaining rounds.
Having won two games in a row with white pieces earlier in the tournament, Carlsen could do little against Anand this time and the Norwegian was not quite happy with his play.
With the invincible tag around him these days, Ding Liren did not face any real danger from Anand, who has 1.5 points in all.
The finish in the top half means that Anand will get an extra white five white against four black games in what is known as the strongest tournament of the year.
