Your Next Move Leuven Grand Chess Tour
17 - 20 June 2016
This follows the same format as the Paris event. Players: Magnus Carlsen, Vladimir Kramnik, Fabiano Caruana, Levon Aronian, Maxime Vachier Lagrave, Hikaru Nakamura, Anish Giri, Wesley So, Veselin Topalov and Viswanathan Anand (who is the only change from Paris).
Magnus Carlsen started with a very impressive 5/6 on the final day of the YourNextMove tournament in Leuven, Belgium. This run was enough to secure tournament victory with three rounds to spare. This performance along with his 4/4 on day two of the rapids took him to the win. Carlsen had winning chances even in the two draws he had in the first 6 games but after securing tournament victory he played very wildly to lose to Anish Giri and then drew his final games.
