Hikaru Nakamura qualified for the Chess.com Speed Chess Championship Final on 3 January 2018 where he will meet Magnus Carlsen. On Saturday Nakamura defeated Sergey Karjakin in a tight match with lots of draws.

It’s not for nothing that Carlsen and Nakamura are known to be the two best speed chess players on the planet. For the second year in a row, the two stars qualified for Chess.com’s final—in the 2016 GM Blitz Battle, and now in the 2017 Speed Chess Championship.
