There are very few things Magnus Carlsen has not achieved as a chess professional, and for fans all over the world it was nice to see the former world champion getting visibly ecstatic after having a particularly good day at the office in the SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz tournament. Carlsen scored 9 wins in as many games to take a 3-point lead in the standings.

Mastering these tactical motifs is essential to deepen your understanding of the game and become a better player. After all, you neither want to overlook the given chances by your opponent, nor blunder yourself!
Talking to Cristian Chirila after his perfect run, Carlsen said:
I’ve had stretches in Poland, where I had like 10½ out of 11 or something, but to win every single game on one day, I don’t think I’ve ever done that before — and probably I won’t do it again.
Carlsen confessed that he began dreaming about the perfect run after round 6. His next rival was Alireza Firouzja, and he had the black pieces, but given the youngster’s fighting spirit, he felt that he would get an imbalanced encounter and thought to himself:
If I win that game, I have a very good chance.
Of course, he won that game, and he went on to beat the Romanian duo of Richard Rapport and Constantin Lupulescu to put a bow on his superlative streak. The moment Lupulescu resigned was recorded by the organizers. Applause followed, of course!
Magnus Carlsen wins the 9th game of the day 4 of #superunitedrapidblitzcroatia! He scored impressive 9 out of 9 today! Congratulations!🎉 #grandchesstour #magnuscarlsen @MagnusCarlsen pic.twitter.com/MlqXP4mlrI
