Filipino-born, Wesley So, who represents the United States, is coming to Stavanger to participate in the Altibox Norway Chess tournament for the first time. The young chess talent has had a desire to participate in the tournament for a while and we are delighted to finally have So as part of the field of players.

Wesley So comments:

“I am delighted that I can finally attend the Altibox Norway Chess Tournament. Norway is so beautiful, I love that country! Great people, great food and hopefully great chess. What more could you ask for?”

Welcome to Stavanger in June, Wesley So!
