GM Alireza Firouzja tok alene ledelsen etter første dag av 2026 Super Rapid & Blitz Croatia med en score på 5/6. Han beseiret stormestrene Ivan Saric og Bogdan-Daniel Deac, og ristet av seg et tidligere tap i bullet-sjakk.

Firouzja ligger ett poeng foran GM-ene Praggnanandhaa Rameshbabu, Anish Giri, Vincent Keymer og Maxime Vachier-Lagrave. Feltet med 10 spillere konkurrerer i Zagreb på Westin Hotel frem til 5. juli.

Den første dagen bød på flere bemerkelsesverdige resultater. Vachier-Lagrave beseiret verdensmester Gukesh Dommaraju i åpningsrunden. Keymer kom seg etter et tidlig tap og slo både GM Jorden van Foreest og GM Nodirbek Abdusattorov.

Turneringen er det tredje stoppet på 2026 Grand Chess Tour. Magnus Carlsen er ikke med i år. Dag to med hurtigsjakk starter torsdag kl. 09.00 ET.
