Aronian wins Alekhine Memorial 2013

Last week one of my favorit player, Levon Aronian, won the Alekhine Memorial 2013 tournament that was played in both Franch (Paris, round 1-5) and Russia (Saint Petersburg, round 6-9).

Aronian won his final game against the player GM Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, while GM Boris Gelfand  only got a draw against World Champion Vishy Anand.
Aronian and Gelfand both ended up on 5.5 out of 9 point, but Aronian won on tie break.
