Chess.com Classic: Lazavik beats Nepo
The knockout phase of the Chess.com Classic kicked off on Friday. Division I saw Magnus Carlsen, Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Vincent Keymer and Denis Lazavik advancing in the winners’ bracket. Lazavik got the better of Ian Nepomniachtchi — though Nepo is much higher rated than his young opponent, it is by this point not a big surprise that the 17-year-old beat a nominally stronger player. | Photo: chess.com
