As we have reported before, all Wei Yi needed for his 3rd norm was for his opponent to show up in the 9th round as he can even lose this game and get the coveted 3rd norm and the GM title (since his rating is already over 2500).
Wei Yi now becomest the current youngest GM in the world and the 4th youngest to achieve the title in history behind only Karjakin, Negi and the current world #1 Magnus Carlsen.
