Wesley So clinches final Grand Prix victory

US Chess Champion Wesley So defeated Hikaru Nakamura in tiebreaks to win the final event of the 2022 FIDE Grand Prix and finish in 3rd place in the overall standings. Wesley needed just two rapid games to clinch the title, with the rollercoaster first game ending in a draw before Hikaru blundered a piece in a difficult position in the second. Hikaru noted he’d lost all interest in the event since achieving the main goal of qualifying for the Candidates Tournament, while Wesley talked about his World Championship chances after Magnus retires.
