phelps 6,527 Posted November 28, 2018 #14 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Magnus Carlsen retains the Chess World title Three-time defending champion Magnus Carlsen and challenger Fabiano Caruana did face a nerve-wracking showdown in the World Chess Championship in London on Wednesday, after 12 regular games failed to break the deadlock. The two young masters face off in the tie-break, which consists of four rapid matches with 25 minutes for each player with an increment of 10 seconds after each move. But the Norwegian only needed 3 of those 4 rapid matches, as he won all of them to successfully defend his crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirkpatrick 144 Posted December 30, 2018 #16 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Enjoyed the tournaments, what I could've followed. One kid from Iran was pretty awesome in both formats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,047 Posted December 31, 2018 #17 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Iran had some interesting results in this World Blitz/Rapid Championship. Sara Khadem-al-Sharieh won two silver medals in both Rapid and Blitz competition. I assume that's Iran's first ever medals in a FIDE senior World Championships. but the most interesting result came from 15 years old Alireza Firouzja. he was leading the competition in both events for so many rounds. even though he blew out his lead in both of them but still a 6th place finish in Rapid event in such a high level competition was great for a teenager. (where he was somthing like 170th in the ranking order before the competition !!) watched his match against the great Magnus Carlsen and he was terrible. probably too nervous facing his idol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
