With his fourth straight draw in one of the strongest tournament of the year, Anand maintained a fifth per cent score but the Indian will need some victories in the remaining five rounds if he has to come closer to the leading group. Wesley So of United States continued with his rampaging act in the tournament and cruised to his third victory in four games at the expense of lowest ranked Rauf Mamedov of Azerbaijan.
