Thanks to everyone for their support over the last 24 hours. Victory in the final round would have been life-changing, but it wasn't to be. As usual my nerves let me down. Congratulations to Wang Hao on qualifying for the Candidates. Well deserved.

I did everything I could. There were ups and downs, a lot of nerves and fight, but in the end I was lacking quality of chess. Anyway, despite of many things, it was a great experience for me. Congrats to deserved winner Wang Hao and young Padawan Kirill Alekseenko! #IOMchess

One player liked my @adhibanchess photo the other day and asked to pose in the same place. Who is the mystery man? #round10 #IOMchess pic.twitter.com/vBbINvJhbP

Congrats to Dinara Saduakassova, who made her first GM norm and shared 1st prize in the women competition (with @HarikaDronavali ). Dinara played in the Challengers 2019 and we hope to see her back in the future! @iomchess @tatasteelchess @FIDE_chess pic.twitter.com/yGIeGz492H
