              Going into the last round there is a 4 way tie for last place Shankland, Swiercz, Xiong, and Tang with only -2. Thats how incredibly hard fought this championship has been. Two of them Swiercz and Xiong due not have a win. They have had many wins in previous championships. Incredible!.

                    • In diagrams 98 and 99 above, Caruana's magnificent pawn levers c5 and f5. First c5 to start the action and then f5 to dominate.

                        • Tokhirjonova apparently had a three fold repetition of position that she failed to claim against Krush. Very costly as a draw would have kept her tied for first after the round.

                          • Last round So and Caruana agree to a draw, leaving Dominguez and Niemann to battle it out with Dominguez having a chance for clear second.

                              • Dominguez does not seem to be making headway.
