The last game of the night was between Hikaru Nakamura and Fabiano Caruana. In an interesting Grunfeld, Caruana sacrificed a pawn. His piece activity was enough to compensate for it and perhaps even help a little more. Nakamura was doing his best to keep everything under control; unfortunately Caruana then made a couple of mistakes. He allowed Nakamura to go into an opposite-colored bishop endgame with rooks where White was up a pawn. After a long period of torture, the game was drawn.
