GM Magnus Carlsen received his fourth Titled Tuesday within the final 5 weeks within the early event on August 27, however his 9.5 factors have been overshadowed by GM Jose Martinez scoring an ideal 11/11 within the late event, becoming a member of Carlsen and GM Hikaru Nakamura as the one gamers to ever accomplish that.Â
Since Titled Tuesday grew to become a two-tournament occasion in 2022, it was Carlsen’s twentieth victory and Martinez’s tenth. In 2024, it was Carlsen’s eighth and Martinez’s second.

Late Match
As normal when there’s a good efficiency within the late occasion, we’ll begin there. This week there have been 527 late individuals, together with Nakamura and Carlsen—each of whom Martinez beat on his solution to his 100% rating.
GM Oleksandr Bortnyk (who scored 9/9 in a Titled Tuesday all the best way again in 2016) was with Martinez each step of the best way… for seven steps. In spherical eight, Martinez lastly took the event’s sole lead, needing simply 31 strikes after taking part in the French Protection. Clearly, Martinez by no means gave that lead again.
However issues obtained no simpler for Martinez at that time as Nakamura was subsequent. Martinez provided his knight on f5 as a way to land a handed pawn, and it might find yourself a sq. away from queening by the point Nakamura resigned.
After one other win within the tenth spherical towards GM Frederik Svane, it was Carlsen standing between Martinez and historical past. At 109 strikes, it was the victor’s longest recreation of the day by so much as none of his others exceeded 60 strikes. And no knight sacrifice this time, simply the lengthy endgame grind, the kind of which Carlsen wins rather more typically than he loses. However not this recreation; this recreation was a win for Martinez, his eleventh, an ideal event full.

Early Match
In an early subject of 775, the third-largest subject of the 12 months to this point, nobody was good. Actually, nobody scored even 10 factors. As an alternative, 4 gamers tied for the lead on 9.5 factors. In the long run, half a tiebreak level separated Carlsen from second place GM Daniel Naroditsky. The tiebreaks have been quite much less shut between Naroditsky’s second, GM Shakhriyar Mamedyarov‘s third, and GM Dmitry Andreikin‘s fourth locations.Â
The one matchup between any of them was a Mamedyarov-Naroditsky draw within the final spherical, and not one of the 4 have been the final good participant, both. That distinction belonged to Sarana earlier than he was lastly held to attracts by Mamedyarov and Andreikin within the ninth and tenth rounds. Then, within the eleventh spherical, Carlsen leapt over him after discovering the knight leap 21.Nc7.
It would not have been sufficient for Carlsen both had there been a decisive recreation in Naroditsky-Mamedyarov. The ninth spherical ended up being key within the dynamic between the latter two, when Mamedyarov had his draw with Sarana whereas Naroditsky wanted simply 27 strikes to dispatch GM Gata Kamsky. Not dangerous for a Ponziani Opening.
Mamedyarov’s third place end finally relied on defeating the hero of the later occasion within the tenth spherical. Martinez would additionally lose within the eleventh spherical right here, however by the tip of the day, he absolutely did not a lot care.
