Magnus Carlsen recovered from a slow start to score a third round win following two lacklustre draws this week at Stavanger, the Norway tournament which the world champion has won on its last three renewals.
The world No 1’s games are screened live and free daily from 4pm BST to a global internet audience, with grandmaster commentaries and a board sidebar which enables non-chess players to see who is winning. Draws are immediately replayed as Armageddons, where White has 10 minutes to Black’s seven but a halved result on the board counts as a black win for the score table.
