Van Wely will win.
Van Wesley will win.
Mathematically, So can now just draw his next 3 games to take the title. Adams and Van Wely will not catch him at 4 points while Van Kampen, even if he wins against the 2 elders, can only tie for 1st. Wesley should have the better SB tie-break, having beaten Robin.
Of course, Wesley should always play to win.
Yes, Wesley can only draw his next 3 games and still will win the tournament. But go for the win Wesley in your next 3 games to gain more ELO points. All Filipinos will love to see you in the top 10 of the world rankings.
