The moment the momentum shifted! In Round 16 of the 2025 World Blitz Championship, Magnus Carlsen faced a monumental task: breaking down Bu Xiangzhi, who hadn't lost a single game in the entire Swiss stage.

Following his painful loss on time to Haik Martirosyan earlier that morning, Magnus knew he needed a near-perfect score to reach the knockout finals. In this game, Bu Xiangzhi played with his signature solidity, reaching an equal-looking endgame. But "endgame Magnus" arrived. Through a series of subtle improvements and a missed $Nf1+$ fork by Bu, Magnus "squeezed water from a stone," securing a victory that sparked his legendary run to his 9th World Blitz Title.

This win was the second in a 4-game winning streak (Makarian, Bu, Samunenkov, MVL) that propelled Magnus from the middle of the pack into the semi-finals, where he eventually defeated Fabiano Caruana and Nodirbek Abdusattorov to claim his 20th World Title.
