GM Alexander Grischuk had a good tournament to win outright, this was a pretty tough bunch of customers, the favorite GM Peter Svidler did well at first but evidently suffered a rare loss vs GM Sanan Sjugirov, the lowest seed in the tournament, after this GM Grischuk had no problems holding off the rest of the pack.
