Grand Swiss 10: Firouzja a draw away from the Candidates

Alireza Firouzja needs just a draw in the final round of the FIDE Chess.com Grand Swiss to guarantee a spot in the 2022 Candidates Tournament after winning a thriller against David Howell. The only other players with their fate in their own hands are his last-round opponent Grigoriy Oparin, who will qualify with a win, and Fabiano Caruana, who also needs a win over Alexandr Predke to be certain of the Candidates, though a draw would probably be enough. Lei Tingjie made no mistake as she drew against Mariya Muzychuk to clinch the women’s title, $20,000 and a place in the Women’s Candidates.
