Magnus revealed he suffered food poisining

World No 1 Magnus Carlsen revealed that he had endured a couple of rough days in Baku after suffering a bout of food poisoning after his semi-final win over Nijat Abasov. Carlsen was speaking to the FIDE YouTube channel after his first game draw against India’s R Praggnanandhaa.

The Indian started with white pieces and had a handsome time advantage at the start of the game after seeming to catch the Norwegian off guard. But soon, Carlsen caught up and the game ended in a draw after 35 moves. While Carlsen had a rest day after his semi-final win over Abasov, Pragg was playing World No 3 Fabiano Caruana in a tiebreaker to seal his spot in the final.
