@unitychess
🅾️🅾️🅾️🅾️

🔘 On Saturday morning Ding Liren decided that he had to withdraw from the tournament.
🔘 Ding won't continue the tournament and his results are not counting.

🔘 This Saturday started with the sad news that Ding Liren decided that he had to withdraw from the tournament. "His surgery went well, but it will take time for him to recover so he is not able to continue to play in the tournament.
" Stated the organizers.

So Beats Carlsen, Shakes Up Norway Chess Standings.

Magnus Carlsen loses today to Wesley So. An unexpected loss. The #worldchampion still maintains the lead in #altiboxnorwaychess but unlike W. So, has only 2 games ahead.
Some players including So have yet 3 games to go.
No games Monday, June 4.

#chessnews
It is So's first classical victory over the world champion. Carlsen still leads with 3.5 out of 6. So and Aronian have 3. Ding Liren's results will not count.
