In the main Open, Ernesto Inarkiev dropped a half point at 5.5/6, and has already been caught
by top-seed Ian Nepomniachtchi. They will face each other in the seventh round.
20-year-old Ivan Bukavshin (2622) has been recovering from a slip in round two and is at 4.5/6
16-year-old Vladislav Artemiev has been climbing the ranks and is now at 5.0/6 with a 2707
performance. In round six he beat...
...IM Kirill Kuderinov, who is still well on track for a GM norm with a 2635 performance.
After four straight wins, Goryachkina conceded two draws and must now contend with no fewer
than nine others all at 5.0/6. She may still be the favorite, but the title is anyone's now.
Journalist and WGM, Elmira Mirzoeva has had a great event so far and shares the lead with 5.0/6
After a poor start, IM Lilit Galojan has bounced back with three straight wins
In the student's event, Dubov played a spectacular sacrificial attack to defeat Belous. Don't miss this highly entertaining game.
