There are some textual variations in the Greek for v9 - some do say Lord but the majority use the Greek word for Christ.

The majority of the early respected manuscripts that contain this passage do NOT have the Greek word for Christ in 1 Cor 10:9 (see below)

LORD
א (ʼAleph) Codex Sinaiticus, Gr., fourth cent. C.E., British Museum, H.S., G.S.
B Vatican ms 1209, Gr., fourth cent. C.E., Vatican City, Rome, H.S., G.S
C Codex Ephraemi rescriptus, Gr., fifth cent. C.E., Paris, H.S., G.S.

GOD
A Codex Alexandrinus, Gr., fifth cent. C.E., British Museum, H.S., G.S.

CHRIST
P46 Papyrus Chester Beatty 2, Gr., c. 200 C.E., Dublin, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S.A., G.S
D Bezae Codices, Gr. and Lat., fifth and sixth cent. C.E., Cambridge, England, G.S.

Indeed Adam Clarke Commentary states: Instead of Χριστον, Christ, several MSS and a few versions have Κυριον, the LORD, and some few Θεον, GOD [...] some respectable MSS have the LORD instead of Christ.

OTHER COMMENTARIES

Pulpit Commentary
Another reading is "the LORD" "Christ" may have come in from a marginal gloss.

Vincent's Word Studies
For Christ read Κύριον the LORD

Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
the Alexandrian copy reads, "neither let us tempt GOD

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
It is not certain that the apostle meant to say that the Israelites tempted Christ.

Further, there can be no doubt that Paul is alluding in 1 Cor 10:9 to Deuteronomy 6:16 and Numbers 21:6. In both scriptures, God (YHWH)/The LORD are mentioned rather than Christ in the original Hebrew (see below all CAPs mine)

Nor let us try the LORD, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents - 1 Cor 10:9 New American Standard Bible

DEUTERONOMY 6:16

Ye do not try JEHOVAH your God as ye tried in Massah - Young's Literal Translation
Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in Massah. - Webster's Bible Translation
You shall not tempt YAHWEH your God, as you tempted him in Massah. - World English Bible

NUMBERS 21:6

Then JEHOVAH sent fiery serpents among the people - Darby Bible Translation
And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people - English Revised Version
YAHWEH sent fiery serpents among the people - World English Bible

CONCLUSION: Although the word "christ" does appear in some early greek manuscripts, the most respected of them read LORD or GOD. The reference in the Hebrew scriptures which most bible commentaries agree Paul is alluding to, make no mention of Christ and universally state it was The Lord GOD (YHWH) Jehovah that struck the Israelites with serpents.

"Canon 14. We prohibit also that the laity should be permitted to have the books of the Old or New Testament; unless anyone from motive of devotion should wish to have the Psalter or the Breviary for divine offices or the hours of the blessed Virgin; but we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books."
