Matches of the third round

The matches at the Championships are increasingly tense and the results uncertain. After the 3rd round, none of the top ten players have a full payout. The first name of this year’s competition, David Navara, drew with German Wagner this time. The same result was achieved by the seventh player Sargissian against Iskandarov. Turkish representative Can surprisingly defeated Volokitin with white figures, who made a bigger mistake already in the opening. Seven chess players are in the lead with 3 points each.
