“Magnus Carlsen dominates speed chess” is a fairly accurate description of chess in 2017. Carlsen has destroyed multiple fast chess formats. After shared firsts (but no title on tiebreak) in the World Rapid and Blitz Championships in December, he has won the three Titled Tuesdays, the Norway Chess blitz tournament, the Paris and Leuven blitz and rapid tournaments, the Champions Showdown match with Ding Liren, and now he has defeated Wesley So by the incredible score of 27.5-9.5 in the Speed Championship.

Carlsen won today’s first section played at 5|2 by the score of 11-3. He won the bullet time control by the incredible score of 12.5-0.5! So won the 3|2 portion, showing well there, but Carlsen’s ultimate point total was a speed chess record. – Chess.com
