Nakamura wins St. Louis Rapid & Blitz, loses no. 1 spot

Hikaru Nakamura has won the St. Louis Rapid & Blitz with three rounds to spare, remaining unbeaten and winning both the rapid and blitz sections, but a perfect day was spoilt by losing the no. 1 spot on the blitz live rating list. Magnus Carlsen is now the world no. 1 in classical, rapid and blitz and lost no time in trolling Hikaru with what the US star called “some ridiculous tweet”. Fabiano Caruana’s hopes of first place died when he lost to Hikaru, but he took clear second place, with Richard Rapport sealing 3rd.
