Grand Swiss 3: Firouzja's rampage continues

Alireza Firouzja has won a 7th game in a row — counting the last four rounds of Norway Chess — to take the sole lead in the Grand Swiss and move within a win of the world no. 4 spot. While Alireza kept on winning there was more frustration for Fabiano Caruana, who missed a chance to beat Ivan Saric, while Levon Aronian could only scrape a draw against Anton Demchenko. Six players, including 17-year-old Nihal Sarin, seized the chance to move to 2nd place on 2.5/3. In the women’s event Lela Javakhishvili and Harika Dronavalli joined a 9-player leading pack after draws on the top boards.
