It ended by crowning a challenger. At Norway Chess 2026, Magnus Carlsen lost his aura, Gukesh sank deeper into doubt, and Praggnanandhaa rose late, fast andfearless.  \nThe 14th edition of Norway Chess took place in Oslo from 25 May to 5 June. It was a change from the usual location in Stavanger, the Norwegian capital hosting the event for the first time.  \nThe tournament was eagerly awaited. Talk of Carlsen’s decline had been increasing, but he was fresh from his tournament victory in Malmo, in the TePe Sigeman tournament, held a mere 20 days before the  \nstart of Norway Chess. Talk of Gukesh’songoing crisis was even louder, with fans hoping for a marvellous comeback in every event he plays in.  \nSharp-sighted experts were less optimistic about the chances ofthe World Champions. While Carlsen won in Malmo, he wasn’t his usual stable self, losing a game to Jorden Van Foreest and, perhaps more surprisingly, his normally very professional approach to preparation was quite often absent.  \nSome time earlier this year, the World Champion took the decision to withdraw from the Grand Chess Tour, stating his desire to rest and work more, rather than  \nBRITISH CHESS MAGAZINE | 387  \n07/146  \nplay non-stop.

The Frenchman withdrew from the Bucharest Grand Chess Tour classical event after suffering an ankle injury. He tried to continue the tournament playing in a private room and from bed, with his leg stretched up, but any hopes for a Tony Miles-style performance, where the English player famously won the Tilburg tournament in 1986 playing whi","cbCaibufHeJlpprK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibufHeJlpprK","pdf",19439513,1,64,"English","en",105,"# NORWAY CHESS 2026\n## Praggnanandhaa rises in Oslo\n## 14th Norway Chess 2026 - game notes","[{\"question\":\"Norway Chess 2026在奥斯陆举行的时间和地点是什么？\",\"answer\":\"第14届Norway Chess于5月25日至6月5日在奥斯陆举行。比赛地点首次从斯塔万格转到挪威首都奥斯陆。\"},{\"question\":\"文章如何概括Carlsen、Gukesh与Praggnanandhaa在本届赛事中的表现？\",\"answer\":\"报道认为Carlsen失去状态、Gukesh疑虑加深，而Praggnanandhaa在后程崛起、迅速而无畏地获得优势并最终成为挑战者胜出的一方。\"},{\"question\":\"提供了哪些类型的内容除了赛事赛况之外？\",\"answer\":\"除Norway Chess赛事叙述外，期刊包含多篇围绕经典对局与讨论的文章，并设有GM头衔要求、布达佩斯六日赛、问题世界、引言与问答以及残局研究等栏目内容。\"}]",1785396608,161,{"code":4,"msg":30,"data":31},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":32,"title":13,"keywords":33,"description":14,"schema_data":34,"social_meta":85,"head_meta":87,"extra_data":89,"updated_unix":27},"british-chess-magazine-vol-148-july-2026-norway-chess-2026","",{"@graph":35,"@context":84},[36,53,67],{"@type":37,"itemListElement":38},"BreadcrumbList",[39,43,47,50],{"item":40,"name":41,"@type":42,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":44,"name":45,"@type":42,"position":46},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":48,"name":12,"@type":42,"position":49},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":51,"name":13,"@type":42,"position":52},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/british-chess-magazine-vol-148-july-2026-norway-chess-2026/113983/",4,{"url":51,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":61,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":62,"interactionStatistic":63},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":40,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-30",true,{"@type":64,"interactionType":65,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":66},"ViewAction",{"@type":68,"mainEntity":69},"FAQPage",[70,76,80],{"name":71,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":73},"Norway Chess 2026在奥斯陆举行的时间和地点是什么？","Question",{"text":74,"@type":75},"第14届Norway Chess于5月25日至6月5日在奥斯陆举行。比赛地点首次从斯塔万格转到挪威首都奥斯陆。","Answer",{"name":77,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":78},"文章如何概括Carlsen、Gukesh与Praggnanandhaa在本届赛事中的表现？",{"text":79,"@type":75},"报道认为Carlsen失去状态、Gukesh疑虑加深，而Praggnanandhaa在后程崛起、迅速而无畏地获得优势并最终成为挑战者胜出的一方。",{"name":81,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":82},"提供了哪些类型的内容除了赛事赛况之外？",{"text":83,"@type":75},"除Norway Chess赛事叙述外，期刊包含多篇围绕经典对局与讨论的文章，并设有GM头衔要求、布达佩斯六日赛、问题世界、引言与问答以及残局研究等栏目内容。","https://schema.org",{"og:url":51,"og:type":86,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":88,"canonical":51},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":91},[92,96,100,104,109,114,119,122,127,130,134],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":93,"show_sort_weight":94,"slug":95},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":46,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":97,"show_sort_weight":98,"slug":99},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":52,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":105,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":106,"show_sort_weight":107,"slug":108},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":110,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":111,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":113},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":115,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":116,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":118},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},30,"research-report",{"id":123,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":126},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":128,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":129},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":131,"slug":133},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":135,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":137},19,"General","general"]
