Great tournament! Congratulations Wesley!💪🔥
Great team! 💪🔥 Yasser Seirawan🔥🔥🔥 Cristian Chirila🔥🔥🔥 Jovanka Houska🔥🔥🔥
Wesley not going down so easily! Lets go wesley
Remember, Wesley knocked out Levon and Caruana who are two of the most strongest seeds in the tournament. If i were to pick who would be the most deserving to win the tournament, it would be wesley.
Alice is gutted not to go for the playoff bound tomorrow.
Wesley is at his best if he goes for the kill…
