Chinese superstar Wang Hao (2758 🇨🇳) starts as the third seed. He is a heavy favorite to win the event and the grand prize of £30,000.
He won the Grand Swiss @iomchess in 2019 to qualify for the @FIDE_chess #Candidates.
#GibChess will be his last classical event before that.

"Caruana drew his game with Hikaru Nakamura and, with 8 points, secured at least a tie for the first place. The game that changed everything was played on board three where Wang Hao of China faced David Howell of England."
