The Sinquefield Cup started with two decisive games. Levon Aronian
on the back of his rapid and blitz win beat Nodirbek Abdusattorov in
a full blooded struggle. Praggnanandhaa scored a very convincing win
against Gukesh. MVL was much better on the board and clock against Alireza Firouzja but
allowed him to escape. Sam Sevian briefly had a winning position against Wesley So
and Fabiano Caruana pushed a little against Jan-Krzysztof Duda but never seemed to have very much.
