So crashes out of World Chess Cup

Wesley So bowed to fellow super Grandmaster Maxime Vachier-Lagrave in the second game of their last 16 showdown Monday night and tumbled out of the 2015 World Chess Cup in Baku, Azerbaijan. They drew their first game. The Cavite-born So, now representing the United States, remained under the spell of the French stalwart who has beaten him three times in nine matches, the rest ending in draws. Roy Luarca
