Very good and exciting tournament so far! 
GM Giri is an absolute beast, a human computer. Pulled out a draw because he was playing against a human being

Giri is a great defender. I was rooting for Navara after he found that Rxf5 sacrifice.
♖ Spectacular Rook sacrifice indeed! Very interesting game.
And today he was on the receiving end of a Rook sacrifice
Brilliant brilliant match won by GM Yifan Hou. I am still stunned, the last 15+ moves were just amazing.I was just about to post! She destroyed Navara.
She is now +1 after 4 (3 draws and 1 win) rounds! I think she will pass Judit Polgar and become recognized as the best woman of all time (so far). https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/tata-steel-chess-masters-2016/4/1/4
