Harpa Hall
This year the Reykjavik Open is a bit overshadowed by the Candidates tournament in Moscow and the Women's World Championship in Lviv. But traditionally the Open in Reykjavik has a lot to offer and this year this is no different. The Harpa hall is one of the world's most splendid venue, Iceland is a place many people want to visit once in their lives, and the field of the tournament is again very strong.
After seven rounds former World Junior Champion Abijheet Gupta from India and Sergey Movsesian lead the field with 6.0/7 each.
Abhijeeht Gupta
Sergey Movsesian
Half a point behind follows a group of eleven players with 5.5/7 each. Among is Tania Sachdev from India, currently the best women in the field. Another player in this group is chess legend and former World Championship Candidate Alexander Beliavsky (born in 1953), who in the 80s was one of the world's best players.
In round five Beliavsky won an interesting and energetic game against German IM Jonas Lampert (born in 1997):
