That party also went to Armageddon. Mamedyarov had to win to win the tournament, but it was a draw. Mamedyarov finished with one point less than Carlsen, who followed the finish in TV 2’s studio. – It was funny that it happened while I was here, Carlsen said.

Topalov did well several times throughout the game, but Carlsen played solidly and made no major mistakes. Carlsen’s party against Topalov went to Armageddon as it did the day before against Maxime Vachier-Lagrave. In the 33rd move, the draw was a fact for the 31-year-old. Carlsen won the tournament in 2016, 2019, 2020 and 2021. (NTB)
