MAGNUS KILLED HIM!!!

It's worth noting that Magnus had a 10 point lead on Hans around the midpoint of the 1+1 bullet, and it would have been physically impossible for Hans to win the remaining games in the time allocated. After some technical issues, and it approached 1am France time, Hans won several bullet games to bring the scores to 17.5 - 12.5. Not like it made a difference in the end.

So tomorrow Magnus will play in the finals against Alireza Firouzja, a favourite up and coming player who is also a fashion designer. For the first time there will be a third place play-off which will be between Hans Niemann and Hikaru Nakamura. This will also be the first Speed Chess Championship in I don't know how long that isn't between Magnus and Hikaru.
