Being untitled, Navalgund has set a new benchmark for youngsters and the Chennai-based author looks good to be a Grandmaster in quick time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more:<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"chess-news\/43417-parsvnath-open-chess-tournament-amonatov-beats-murali-karthikeyan-to-take-sole-lead\"><strong>Parsvnath Open Chess Tournament: Amonatov beats Murali Karthikeyan to take sole lead<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Grandmaster Farrukh Amanotov of Tajikistan stayed ahead of the field with a quick draw against Swayams Mishra. With 8 points in his kitty, Amanotov remains the sole leader and is now trailed by Diptayan Ghosh and Dzhmaev who both are a half point behind.<\/p>\n<p>The Rs. 18 Lakh tournament will come to an end on Monday and it seems Amanotov is the hot favourite at this point. However as the last round pairings suggest Diptayan Ghosh has a task on hand if he can win against the top ranked player here.<\/p>\n<p>Local hopeful Sahaj Grover has a chance to finish in top ten if he can win his last round game against Saptarshi Roy. However the Bengal International Master is in top form here.<\/p>\n<p>Marat Dzhumaev has been in best form in the last few games and all eyes will be on him in the last round too. His uncompromising style calls for a scintillating finish to this year&rsquo;s event.<\/p>\n<p>For the next year, the prize money bar has been raised to over Rs. 77 lakhs.
