The Future of chess starts with F: Firouzja
Alireza Firouzja, maybe will be World Champion, in the next few years.
In this game he was almost playing 2 games at the same time by looking at the next table. By the way, at his board, he easily beat an International chess Master. (not just won, but delomish his opponent, like he do all the time when he plays against strong pro players)
He has another chess skills level. Certainly, for this reason, Firoujza was more interested to watch the other tables.
