GM Morozevich has captured the Biel Tournament with 1 round to spare. He scored 7-0 against 4 players with an average rating of 2660!! One thing you can’t say is he is boring. I am truly impressed with his performance! Incredible!

Round 9 Results:

Morozevich – Pelletier 1-0
Bruzon – Radjabov 1/2
Volotikin – Carlsen 1-0

The only blemish so far is his two losses to Magnus Carlsen.

Standings after 9 Rounds:

1. GM Alexander Morozevich (Russia 2731) 7.0
2. GM Teimour Radjabov (Azerbaijan 2728) 5.5
3. GM Magnus Carlsen (Norway 2675) 5.0
4. GM Andrei Volokitin (Ukraine 2662) 4.0
