🗣 | Alireza Firouzja won his first game in #WijkaanZee. What are your expectations for the rest of the #TataSteelChess Tournament?

Firouzja won, and last time I checked Xiong and Van Forest had a promising position.

When it was the last time that we had such a pack of young hungry lions playing in a round robin tournament like this? This edition of Wijk ann Zee is specially exciting! #TataSteelChess
