St Louis RB 1: Firouzja's dream debut

Alireza Firouzja ominously said he felt “very fresh” after he beat Shakhriyar Mamedyarov and Hikaru Nakamura to take the sole lead on 5/6 after Day 1 of the St. Louis Rapid and Blitz. Hikaru, who went unbeaten in 27 games to win the 2021 event, lost twice, handing Magnus Carlsen the world rapid no. 1 spot, but he did then bounce back in the final game to beat Levon Aronian.
