Carlsen Beats Caruana, Will Play Firouzja In final

GMs Magnus Carlsen and Alireza Firouzja will throw down in the Division I Winners Final of the 2023 Julius Baer Generation Cup after defeating, respectively, GMs Fabiano Caruana and Wesley So. Carlsen won the first two games with ease, essaying the Norwegian Rat Opening in the second, but just barely staved off a comeback in the last two games. After three draws, Firouzja took down So with some impressive preparation and a scorching attack.
