Have a look at Aronian’s win today.
Astounding to an amateur like me.
Early exchange of queen’s, no obvious advantage, and grinds black into paralysis then finishes off with some tactical shots.
Also stunning to see that both Ivanchuk and Morozevich are at the bottom of the table after five rounds.
