In the Lindores Abbey Challenge, Wei Yi lost to Sergey Karjakin by not seeing a mate in 1.
Meanwhile, or rather a few days later, Brazilian grandmaster Luis Supi beat Magnus Carlsen with a fierce attack in an online blitz game.
1. e4 d5 2. exd5 Qxd5 3. Nf3 Bg4 4. Be2 Nc6 5. Nc3 Qd7 6. h3 Bxf3 7. Bxf3 O-O-O 8. O-O Nd4 9. a4 Kb8 10. Nb5 Nxf3+ 11. Qxf3 a6 12. c4 e5 13. d4 exd4 14. Bf4 axb5 15. axb5 Bd6 16. Ra2 Qf5 17. Rfa1 Kc8 18. Qc6 1-0
I had added the appropriate diagrams to Chessgames in the comments where "dehanne" posted a video link of the game first.
On a Twitch clip, Magnus is seen congratulating his opponent's final move as "awesome".
White to move (before 18.Qc6)
