World Esports Cup: Magnus Carlsen wins chess title
Norwegian Magnus Carlsen has crowned himself the champion of the 2026 World Esports Chess Championship for the second consecutive time, after an undefeated run. Carlsen defeated Belarusian Denis Lazavik in the final with back-to-back match victories, solidifying his dominance by maintaining an unbeaten record throughout the tournament—winning or drawing all of his matches. It is worth noting that Carlsen had previously won the 2025 edition despite suffering three losses during that tournament, which reflects his cautious strategy that has helped him retain his title and establish himself as one of the top figures in the game worldwide.
