Could Santa Claus beat Magnus Carlsen at chess?

Let’s assume that Santa has had his milk and cookies. 

 

I think Old St Nick would win 9 out of 10 games and draw the last one.

Really? I am pretty sure that any of the top 10 players would win all ten. In less than 100 moves.

Santa would no doubt play the Santa Claus opening with both colors, where you basically give away as much material as possible in the early stages of the game, so no, Carlsen would have a field trip on Santa, mkay?!

Everyone knows that if you win against Santa you go on the Naughty list.

Throw the game, Magnus!

Santa is able to move faster then sound and hold that for at lest 5 hours and you dont think he has the IQ or stamina to beat Magnus?
