Großmeister Magnus Carlsen überwand frühe Schwierigkeiten und gewann das Titled Tuesday Online-Blitzturnier am 20. Januar 2026 mit 9,5 von 11 Punkten.

Das Titled Tuesday Event, veranstaltet von Chess.com für titelte Spieler, zog 426 Teilnehmer an, die um 11:00 Uhr Ostküstenzeit starteten. Carlsen stand früh vor Herausforderungen, einschließlich eines angespannten ersten Turmendspiels gegen den venezolanischen CM Christian Allen, wo Allen unter Zeitdruck scheiterte. Gegner machten weiter Fehler, was Carlsen half, Schwierigkeiten zu entkommen, wie in Runde fünf, als GM Shamsiddin Vokhidov eine Figur verlor. Carlsen sagte den Zuschauern: „Wenn ich solche Geschenke bekomme, habe ich definitiv eine Chance in diesem Turnier.“
