Jun-16-22    ndg2: Abdussatorov and Keymer both with 5/7. I think, Keymer has the easier last two rounds. Jun-17-22    ndg2: Vincent Keymer won the 2022 Challengers tournament ahead of Niemann and Abdusattorov. After 9 rounds, both Keymer and Niemann had 6.5 points with Abdusattorov trailing half a point. Since all regular tie-breakers were equal too (H2H, SB, number of black wins), they played a two games blitz mini-match, which Keymer won 2:0. He has now the right to participate in the Masters section next year. NOTE: Create an account today to post replies and access other powerful features which are available only to registered users.
