Hikaru Nakamura vs. Fabiano Caruana en ajedrez rápido
Nakamura jugó la primera partida en estilo "¡Olé!" Caruana no encontró ninguna respuesta verdaderamente buena a la agresiva apertura de las blancas y se metió en apuros en una posición complicada. Pero entonces se dio la vuelta a la tortilla y al final Hikaru tuvo que luchar mucho para alcanzar las tablas.

El movimiento de Nakamura en la segunda partida 6...f6?? es difícil de explicar. A continuación, Caruana lo descuartizó paso a paso.

La tercera partida comenzó de manera favorable para Nakamura. Caruana se las arreglaba peor que Nakamura en una posición que tenía carácter de India de Rey y estuvo sometido a presión tras la apertura. Nakamura careció de paciencia y Caruana entró mejor en el juego. Pero aún así, al final tuvo que demostrar mucha clase para aguantar.

En la cuarta partida, Nakamura optó por la defensa Francesa, pero después de la apertura, Caruana aumentó su ventaja y se apuntó la victoria.

La obra maestra de Negi
En la segunda partida, Parimarjan Negi devolvió el golpe inmediatamente. Jugó la Siciliana de manera magistral. En una partida agresiva y muy compleja, el indio siempre estuvo a la altura de las circunstancias e igualó el marcador del duelo en partidas rápidas.
