World Fischer Random Chess Championship 2019

The World Fischer Random Chess Championship semi-finals and final took place in Hovikodden 27th October to 2nd November 2019. Ian Nepomniachtchi, Wesley So and Fabiano Caruana were the online winners at the start of October who travel to Norway to take on Magnus Carlsen. The points system for each mini-match over various time controls was: Slow rapid: win = 3, draw = 1.5, Fast rapid: win = 2, draw = 1, Blitz: win = 1, draw = 0.5 with tie-breaks in the event of a draw after 6 games. I don't really have a good way to display these games but will try and keep the PGN file up to date. Wesley So won the event destroying Magnus Carlsen 13.5-2.5 in the final. Once Carlsen started losing he just seemed to play worse and worse. Ian Nepomniachtchi beat Fabiano Caruana to finished 3rd.
