Gelfand jugó unas partidas muy interesantes en general, incluyendo un sacrificio bravo aunque totalmente erróneo contra Yannick Pelletier. Jugó dos partidas técnicamente correctas por completo contra Vishy Anand y Grigoriy Oparin. Cabe destacar que Boris Gelfand ha reemplazado a Maxime-Vachier Lagrave en el torneo en el último momento porque este último tuvo que retirar su participación por razones particulares.

Mientras que Gelfand había tomado el mando tras seis rondas, perdió la partida de la última ronda contra Nepomniachtchi, y Nakamura aguantó las tablas contra Anand. De esta manera, Gelfand y Nakamura terminaron empatados por 4,5/7 puntos en el primer puesto. Hikaru Nakamura se alzó con la victoria gracias al tener la mejor valoración de desempate Sonneborn-Berger.

El club de ajedrez más antiguo del mundo y su miembro de honor Oleg Skvortsov han sugerido una importante innovación para el futuro del ajedrez con un control de 40 minutos por partida, más 10 segundos de incremento por movimiento. Les parece que el ajedrez "clásico" debería ser más rápido y que los jugadores deberían disponer de una hora por bando y partida.
