In the ninth and final round, only Fabiano Caruana and Hikaru Nakamura could still achieve 1st Place. Caruana led Nakamura by a half point, and so with mathematical tiebreaks, Fabi would secure a victory with just a draw. Nakamura would have to win his game, and Fabiano would have to lose for Hikaru to win Chess 9LX.
At this moment, Nakamura has defeated Shankland. Fabiano’s fate is in his own hands against Robson.
