Более того, он превысил рекорд Карлсена по рейтингу в буллете на личесс на 1 пункт эло.
The young star does not intend to end his chess career just yet. Firouzja also revealed that he will be more active in the second part of 2023, playing in the Grand Chess Tour and in Norway Chess, which is set to take place in May.
В этой теме еще года три назад я высказал опасения, что молодой и симпатичный Алиреза будет в Париже сильно отвлекаться от шахмат. В инстаграме есть одно черно-белое фото Фирузджы после турнира в Мадриде. На нем Алиреза очень взросленько и «модельно» выглядит, а если фото еще скадрировать …
Наверное нехорошо, даже из лучших побуждений, модифицировать чужие фото.
Поэтому размещу результат кадрирования и оригинал отдельным постом, чтобы его можно было легко грохнуть, если что.

#FunFact: Did you know that Alireza Firouzja is not only a talented chess player but also has a passion for fashion design?
In a recent interview with Alessia Santeramo, he confirmed that he has been in the fashion industry for two years. "It's taking time from my chess, but I like to have both things together", he mentioned.
🤩Happy Birthday, @AlirezaFirouzja; wishing you all the best on your special day and your year ahead!
