STL Rapid & Blitz 4: Nakamura cruising to victory

Hikaru Nakamura scored an unbeaten +3 on the first day of blitz to move to what looks like an unassailable 2.5-point lead over 2nd place Fabiano Caruana, who bounced back to score 50% after suffering three losses. Hikaru’s real challenge is to stay top of the blitz live rating list, as he’s now tied on 2892 with Magnus Carlsen. The day’s other top performer was Liem Quang Le, who won five games as he matched Nakamura’s 6/9 to climb out of the last place in which he finished the rapid.
