This is a flash report. The full report will be added here soon.

In a suspenseful final day, GM Anish Giri won the 2023 Tata Steel Chess Tournament with his win over GM Richard Rapport, his first victory in the super-tournament since his first time participating in 2011. This tournament victory was made possible by GM Jorden van Foreest defeating tournament leader GM Nodirbek Abdusattorov, who led for the majority of the event and defeated the world number-one GM Magnus Carlsen and number-two GM Ding Liren at the age of 18. 

Carlsen tied for second with Abdusattorov with 8/13 points, despite losing two consecutive games for the first time since 2015 in this tournament. GM Wesley So finished third with 7.5 points after drawing  GM Praggnanandhaa R. In Sunday’s fourth decisive game, GM Parham Maghsoodloo gave GM Levon Aronian his first loss in the event.

In the Challengers section, GM Alexander Donchenko clinched first place on Saturday with one round to spare. GM Mustafa Yilmaz defeated IM Eline Roebers to finish second and GM Javokhir Sindarov won against IM Thomas Beerdsen, finishing third.
