Last round: Gelfand and Carlsen both drew,so Gelfand wins with 6-2,while Carlsen(who,IMO,was given a gift draw by Mamedyarov)will at least tie for 2nd place with 5.5-2.5. Nakamura's woes continue,as he lost to Morozovitch,while Caruana must win against Andreikin if he wants to tie Magnus for 2nd.

Caruana took a draw with Andreikin,so he ties for 3rd-4th with Naka at 4.5-3.5 Epic collapse by Hikaru,who must be wondering if he will ever shake off his Carlsen jinx,as he is now 0-7 against Magnus.

Just great to see Gelfand winning Alekhin and Tal memorial at age of 44

My mistake my previous post-Caruana,Andrekin,and Mamedyanov all scored 5-4,edging out Nakamura by half a point. Disasterous event for Kramnik,who finished dead last with +0-3=6
