Both sections of the FIDE Chess.com Grand Swiss have sole leaders going into round 8 (out of 11). Alireza Firouzja made the most of a slight edge in an endgame against Evgeniy Najer to reclaim the sole lead in the open section, while Lei Tingjie got the better of Nino Batsiashvili to collect her fifth victory of the event. | Photo: Anna Shtourman
