The first two rounds of mini-matches at the World Fischer Random Championship were played on Tuesday in Reykjavik. Nodirbek Abdusattorov (group A) and Hikaru Nakamura (group B) won both their mini-matches to take early leads. Nakamura defeated Magnus Carlsen in their direct matchup. The world champion had a faulty performance, as he blundered material both against Nakamura and Vladimir Fedoseev. | Photo: FIDE / David Llada
