by L'immortale

Romanian Grandmaster Bogdan-Daniel Deac won the Reykjavik Chess Open 2024 after tense fights in the final round.

GM Bogdan-Daniel Deac (Romania, 2690) entered the last round co-leading the event with five other players. However, Deac was the only one in the group to score a victory in the last round, thus emerging as the sole Winner of the event. Bogdan-Daniel Deac prevailed against GM Alisher Suleymenov (Kazakhstan, 2506) to score 7.5 points and win the top prize of 5.000 euros.

Seven players left behind Deac trailing by half a point and tied for the second place with the score of 7/9 points. GM Sebastian Maze (France, 2551) had the best tiebreaks to finish second, and GM Paulius Pultinevicius (Lithuania, 2575) came third. GM Praveen Balakrishnan (USA, 2490) was fourth, GM Vahap Sanal (Turkey, 2558) went fifth, IM Matthew Wadsworth (England, 2450) finished sixth, GM Gudmundur Kjartansson (Iceland, 2465) ended in the seventh place and GM Hedinn Steingrimsson (Iceland, 2477) finished the event in the eight position.

IM Leya Garifullina (FIDE, 2413), IM Nurgyul Salimova (Bulgaria, 2426) and GM Zhu Jiner (China, 2467) scored 6.5 points each to tie for the first women’s prize. Leya Garifullina had the best tiebreak criteria to pocket 1.100 euros, Nurgyul Salimova won 750 euros, and Zhu Jiner earned 450 euros prize.

IM Leya Garifullina was the best ranked female player in the Reykjavik Chess Open 2024
