Round 3

In Round 3, all the leaders drew.
Nakamura defeated Aryan, and Firouzja won vs. Abasov to climb half a point behind the top seven.

Round 2

After Round 2, there are "only" seven leaders.
It's not likely to already have such few players on top after only two rounds in a Swiss with more than 100 participants.
Fabiano Caruana defeated Hans Niemann in an all-American derby to lead the group of seven players at 2.0/2.
Aronian was held to a draw by Ivan Cheparinov, and the French GM Etienne Bacrot drew Richard Rapport.
Unexpectedly, Duda lost to Predke, and Abdusattarov drew with Narayanan.
After drawing the first-round game, Firouzja defeated Mamedov, just like Giri did, whereas Gukesh - one of the favorites - drew the second game in a row, like Praggnanandhaa and Nakamura.
