Norway Chess: World Champion Gukesh Loses To Carlsen; Divya, Humpy Also Suffer Losses
Playing with the black pieces, Carlsen gradually outplayed Gukesh in a complex game. The position remained balanced for much of the struggle before the Norwegian star seized his opportunity in the middlegame. Under increasing pressure and time trouble, Gukesh was unable to hold the position, allowing Carlsen to convert his advantage and secure an important classical victory.
The win gives Carlsen valuable points in the tournament standings as he seeks to recover from a slow start on home soil.
