Magnus Carlsen wins the Altibox Norway Chess 2019 by a full three points. Noteworthy is that of the possibility of 45 decisive games, there were only 11. I think this idea of Armageddon as an incentive against a multitude of draws needs to be rethought.
There was a single decisive game in the final round; that from the hand of Yangye Yu.
