The field of the Altibox Norway Chess Tournament was announced last week. Anish Giri was supposed to play, but in view of rising corona infection rates the Dutchman prefers to stay at home. He is replaced by the young Polish grandmaster Jan-Krzysztof Duda. Alireza Firouzja, currently the world's best junior, also gets a chance to prove himself in this top event. For both it is their first Altibox Norway Tournament.
