Andy is funny enough, but the two of them together.....
Wesley So - being in a great mood - picked White for his first game against Hikaru Nakamura. #FIDEGrandPrix
Final starts tomorrow at 15:00 CET.
That's Ooor Andy!!!!!
The drawing of lots for tomorrow’s tiebreaks was done after the end of the round, with the help of Vincent Keymer.
Sam Shankland and Shakhriyar Mamedyarov will play White against Wesley So and Vincent Keymer respectively. #FIDEGrandPrix
