The top five boards were playing for the title, but once Nepomniachtchi won the others had to concentrate on obtaining some welcome prize-money as well as finishing in the top 22 (and qualification for the World cup). Anyone finishing on 8/11 or better qualifies directly, whereas finishers on 7.5 will play a series of play-offs tomorrow to determine the final qualification places.
