Able to reproduce this issue on Mac 10.12.6, Win-10 and Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome reported version #62.0.3202.94 and latest canary #64.0.3279.0.
This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M50 old builds. 

Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team.

Thanks...!!

The site in question wraps the selection in an extra element which breaks ligatures and kerning. Issue 6122 tracks adding support for cross-element shaping.
