BREAKING: Magnus Carlsen Spotted At Bridge Tournament
Is World Chess #1 Magnus Carlsen trading in his Chess pieces for playing cards?
The world chess champion has reportedly been spotted at an ACBL regional tournament in the United States today.
This alleged sighting may come as less of a shock to Norwegians. Much like chess, Norway has long been a force at the highest levels of bridge, having won the Bermuda Bowl in 2007 and finishing as runners-up in 2023.
Funbridge has reached out to Carlsen’s camp and the Chess.com team to confirm the sighting.
