The Julius Baer Generation Cup is the 7th event of the Meltwater Champions Chess Tour and takes place from 18-25 September on chess24.com. The event features 16 world-class players spanning the age spectrum. World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen headlines the field and met again with 19-year-old Hans Niemann, resigning his game after only two moves of play (Read more here). The field includes also the six-time World Championship candidate Boris Gelfand, Ukraine’s 53-year-old former World Rapid Champion  Vassily Ivanchuk, 15-year-old Christopher Yoo, Indian prodigy Praggnanandhaa, Vincent Keymer, Arjun Erigaisi,  Anish Giri, Levon Aronian, Liem Le, Radoslaw Wojtaszek, David Navara, Ivan Saric, and Adhiban Baskaran, and today gets cut in half, as only the top eight players proceed to the Knockout phase of the event.

With the results of day 3, the possibility that Magnus Carlsen again meets Hans Niemann at the Julius Baer Generation Cup is pretty high. The last day of prelims starts at 18:00 CEST with the 13th round, featuring the following encounters:

GM Vincent Keymer – GM Anish Giri
GM Arjun Erigaisi – GM Radoslaw Wojtaszek
GM Magnus Carlsen – GM Christopher Yoo
GM Basakaran Adhiban – GM Boris Gelfand
GM Le Quang Liem – GM Jan-Krzysztof Duda
GM David Navara – GM Vassily Ivanchuk
GM Hans Niemann – GM Ivan Saric
GM Levon Aronian – GM Praggnanandhaa
