A Single Loss!

On October 21, 2019, Magnus Carlsen broke Ding Liren’s record of 100 games for the longest unbeaten streak in classical chess by drawing Levon Aronian in the Grand Swiss Chess Tournament.

The first World Record! Magnus Carlsen now has remained unbeaten for 101 straight classical chess games.

Carlsen’s last loss in classical chess was to Shakhriyar Mamedyarov in the Biel tournament on July 31, 2018!

The second World Record! Carlsen’s current streak is also the longest unbeaten streak by a reigning World Chess Champion and includes a stretch of 12 undefeated games against Fabiano Caruana at the 2018 World Chess Championship.
