    Norway Chess: Magnus Carlsen, Ju Wenjun Clinch 2024 Titles

    World Championship Challenger Lei Tingjie: Magnus Carlsen and Ju Wenjun clinch Norway Chess 2024 titles in both men's and women's category as the final round came to an end.

    Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana drew their classical game, and the winner was decided with an Armageddon tie-breaker. It was Carlsen who got the better of Caruana, and with this win, the Norwegian secured at least a share of first place in the tournament, having to wait for the result of the game between Hikaru Nakamura and Praggnanandhaa R.

    Nakamura was in a must-win situation to finish on top, but the game ended in a draw. The 18-year-old chess prodigy Praggnanandhaa then won the tiebreak game, capping off his debut outing at Norway Chess in third place behind Nakamura.
