Abdusattorov resigns and Firouzja is the 2026 Chennai Grand Masters Champion! chess.com/events/2026-qu…

Firouzja is almost certain to win the Chennai Grand Masters after a draw against Arjun — only Abdusattorov winning a losing position vs. Andreikin could force a playoff! chess.com/events/2026-qu…

32.c5? by Andreikin and suddenly Abdusattorov can escape! chess.com/events/2026-qu…

Abdusattorov went into the final round in Chennai knowing he needed to win to have a chance of reaching a playoff — but he's currently in trouble vs. Andreikin! chess.com/events/2026-qu…

Hans grabbed on h6 immediately and we have a draw by repetition-Gukesh finishes bottom in his home super tournament but remains above 2700!

So much for just stopping the bleeding!

Gukesh-Niemann & Firouzja-Arjun have begun on the final day of the Chennai Grand Masters! Gukesh is fighting to avoid dropping below 2700, while a win would guarantee Alireza 1st prize—and a draw at least a playoff! chess.com/events/2026-qu…

Gukesh dropped to 2702.9 after losing to Pranesh in the Chennai Grand Masters, while Firouzja leads Arjun and Abdusattorov by half a point going into the final round! chess.com/news/view/2026…

GM @Vachier_Lagrave picked up his 13th #TitledTuesday win! chess.com/news/view/vach…

Pranesh looking extra happy after defeating the world champion, Gukesh! #chess

Nihal takes down Arjun! Arjun still has things in his own hands, but now he must beat Firouzja on demand in tomorrow's final round to force tiebreaks! chess.com/events/2026-qu…

Arjun is in real danger after swapping off rooks vs. Nihal chess.com/events/2026-qu…

After today's loss to Pranesh, if Gukesh loses to Niemann tomorrow he would fall out of the 2700 club! 🤯 chess.com/ratings
