Carlsen Clinches Norway Chess 2025 Title After Gukesh Falters
Chess World Champion: World No. 1 Magnus Carlsen added another accolade to his legendary career by winning the Norway Chess 2025 title in his hometown of Stavanger on Friday. The five-time World Champion secured the crown after a dramatic final round that saw his closest challenger, reigning World Champion D. Gukesh, falter at the last hurdle.
Carlsen, playing with white, was held to a draw by India’s rising star Arjun Erigaisi in the final classical game. While the result kept the door slightly ajar for Gukesh, the young Indian prodigy needed a win against American grandmaster Fabiano Caruana to catch up with Carlsen on the leaderboard.
However, under immense pressure, Gukesh blundered in a balanced position, losing the game on the spot and with it, his chance at winning the title.
