Fabiano Caruana verloor na 3 slecht gespeelde partijen in de eerste vier ronde in de vijfde ronde van Daniel Naroditsky, Als alle partijen hun normale uitslagen hadden gehad had Fabie nu op slecht één punt gestaan. Maar ontsnappen blijft niet lukken als je slecht blijft spelen. Maar het toernooi is nog lang dus wie weet.
