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.
