Carlsen only 3.8 points in front of Caruana; he has lost 3.2 points by drawing games at Tata Steel already. Soon he will have to either win a game or lose his lead.

Despite yesterday's victory, Magnus is still one loss away from losing top spot on the Live rating list.

Carlsen has dropped to #2 in rapid to MVL, following a not-so-great performance in St Louis.
So what's your excuse? To run like the devil's chasing you.
See you in another life, brotha.
And dropped to #2 in the blitz ratings as well.
So what's your excuse? To run like the devil's chasing you.

The only rating that matters is the Standard one. And Magnus is now faced with the challenge of beating his own...to record highest ever!

Carlsen's decline in the Rapid and Blitz lists has been followed by one in the Standard, where in Sinquefield he has drawn his way to a 13.5 point decline, down from a 5 year high.
So what's your excuse? To run like the devil's chasing you.
See you in another life, brotha.
Carlsen has regained #1 in rapid (2881) and is 21 points ahead of MVL (2860).
Still #2 in Blitz (2887) behind Naka (2900!).
So what's your excuse? To run like the devil's chasing you.
See you in another life, brotha.
First time in a while that the gap 2-3 has been larger than the gap 1-2, following Caruana's win in Tata Steel.

The top 10 is currently comprised of only 3 players in their 20s, and the other 7 in their 30s. Carlsen, MVL and Nepo all ticked over to 30. Must be the first time for quite a while with so few 20-somethings.
So what's your excuse? To run like the devil's chasing you.
See you in another life, brotha.
The one to watch is Alireza Firouzja.At 17 he is 2749 and easily the youngest in the top 20.From Iran he has moved to France.
Wei Yi of China at 21 was described as a prodigy but has not improved in the past 3 years (looking at his rating data).
