The Best Without Magnus
And Fabiano Caruana the best player in the history without a world champion title won his second game to chase the leaders Keymer & Van Foreest. I want to remember that this 2 take a free point in their games vs Firouzja so Fabi is the solo leader of the tournament in my books.
