Descrição

57-year-old Michal Krasenkow executed a brilliant attack to take down Kirill Alekseenko on Friday and reach a Round 3 match against 15-year-old Praggnanandhaa, who whitewashed Gabriel Sargissian 2:0. Sargissian and Alekseenko are among 7 players given a bye to Round 2 who are out of the Open Section (Vallejo, Anton, Kryvoruchko, Ragger and Levon Aronian, who couldn’t play, are the others) while in the Women’s Section only Olga Girya was knocked out, by 16-year-old Leya Garifullina. 30 matches have gone to tiebreaks, after Alireza Firouzja and Gukesh survived scares.
