Sinquefield Cup 3: Niemann beats Carlsen to cross 2700

“It must be embarrassing for the World Champion to lose to me — I feel bad for him!” said Hans Niemann after an incredible Round 3 of the Sinquefield Cup. He not only beat Magnus with the black pieces, ending a 53-game unbeaten streak, but also crossed 2700 on the live rating list and took the sole lead. That overshadowed big wins for Alireza Firouzja (over Levon Aronian) and Wesley So (over Fabiano Caruana).
