Fabiano Caruana about to make things legendary?

Is this becoming Caruana's Linares '94?
Truly amazing, this 4-0 is not only insane, but incredibly rich in chess ideas, brilliant moves (Nd3!! against Carlsen), the positional masterpiece against Aronian to be added soon…

Simplifab Cup 2014...

Or maybe the italians will name a Ferrari, the F-Caruana...

Yangqui...now a smooth 5-0 even after Hikaru recovered from his unorthodox opening, and caruana was left with seconds on his clock! 

You don't just go 5-0 in a exremely strong superGM tourney.

we are seeing caruana come to the forefront of the chess world all of a sudden...we knew he was good, but not THIS good

yes its extremely impressing how he presents himself, i hope he'll play carlsen for the world title within a few years

7-0, even better than karpov...in a probably much stronger field.

In one week, from a retrospective prespective, Caruana has gone from a strong GM who did some amazing things and chased Magnus to the man of the amazing U.S. proformance in 2014 that no one can seem to repeat.

He's eternally on the map now. Not just another top 5.

still Bobby Fischer's run was 20 games! The odds were 1 in 10 billion literally for Robert

How did Naka do?

Forgot his prep and lost straight out of the opening...

Figuratively literally.  And his opponents weren't the same level.

I love his style, some good positioning , some tactics, creating stress on the board etc. His games are more exciting than Magnus's ones

The 20 won games streak of Bobby Fischer was achieved against the following oponents:

During the 1970 Interzonal:

-Jorge Rubinetti (IM)

- Wolfgang Uhlmann 

- Mark Taimanov

- Duncan Suttles

- Henrique Mecking

- Svetozar Gligorić

- Oscar Panno (by default)

Candidates Matches:

- Mark Taimanov (6 times)

- Bent Larsen (6 times)

- Tigran Petrosian 

If he forgot and just played on his own he probably would have been fine (unless it's a sharp position or something).

Seems to me he got confused without knowing it, played Na6 thinking it was part of his analysis, and then at one point or another realized it was a completely wrong move.

I know I said forgot, but I meant didn't remember correctly.

Steinitz winning 25 in a row against mainly top 5 players and Fischer's 19-20 in a row are of course hard to beat, but Caruana winning 7 in a row against players all ranked higher than 10th in the more drawish 2014 is incredible enough. As a comparison Fischer's streak opponents in the Interzonal were ranked (Chessmetrics):

223, 21, 9, 99, 52, 19, (35).

On the first official rating list in 1971 Taimanov was 15th, while Larsen was 4th and Petrosian 5-6th.

Caruana has beaten the top two on the official rating list here, while Fischer never played the top two apart from himself (Spassky and Korchnoi). Steinitz on the other hand won ten games in his 25 game streak against the highest rated player in the world apart from himself, a bit as if Caruana won ten in a row against Carlsen or Fischer ten in a row against Spassky. But those days were a bit different.

Using unofficial Elo rating lists, Fischer's Interzonal opponents were ranked:

172, 20, 13, 124, 36, 18, (43).

Can someone post some of Caruana's recent games?

Caruana whith 22 years is in the top ten of chess players and is second. Caruana wins Carlsen the wolrd champion

well, it was a good run.
