Dec-14-19 Grand Prix Jerusalem (2019)
| |
| devere: Due to lack of first round classical-bonus wins by MVL, Nepo, and Shak, Grischuk has qualified for the candidates tournament. If Nepo wins Jerusalem he will also qualify for the candidates tournament, otherwise it will probably be MVL. Wesley So's hopes are still alive, but his ... |
