10 igrača, 9.kola
Tempo igre: 25’+10’’
Posle 6.kola u vođstvu su Hans Moke Niemann i Wesley So sa po 4,5 poena iz 6 partija. Niemann je do sada sjajno odigrao ovaj rapid turnir: remizirao je sa Sindarovom, ali je pobjedio svjetskog šampiona Gukeša, Caruanu i Firouzju!
Zanimljivo da su se u petom kolu sastali svjetski šampion Gukeš i izazivač Sindarov. Gukeš je pobijedio, a Sindarov se nije uspio da oporavi za sledeće kolo pa je izgubio od Vachier Lagrave-a.

🇫🇷 Alireza Firouzja o Grand Chess Tour i talentu
Govoreći za ChessBase India, Alireza Firouzja je objasnio zašto se stalno vraća Grand Chess Touru, nazvavši ga najznačajnijom turnejom za sebe.
„Mislim da je to za mene najznačajnija turneja, jer ako je osvojite, to zaista pokazuje da ste jedan od najboljih igrača te godine.“
Firouzja je govorio i o talentu i radnim navikama, nakon što je 🇧🇬 Ivan Cheparinov rekao da je Alireza jedan od najtalentovanijih igrača sa kojima je radio.
„Mislim da su svi vrhunski igrači mnogo radili da bi stigli dovde i mnogo toga žrtvovali. Vjerovatno radim manje od drugih vrhunskih igrača, ali ipak mislim da je količina rada koju sam ulagao ranije, dok sam bio mlađi, bila ogromna.“
