Levon Aronian is the only Armenian grandmaster to continue fighting for the World Chess Cup, currently underway in Tbilisi, Georgia.
Armenia's Hrant Melkumyan and Robert Hovhannisyan were left out of the tournament.
The first game of Round 2 will be held on Wednesday, September 6, with Aronian set to meet China's Hou Yifan.
