Update: I just got a clarification from Espen Agdestein, Magnus’ manager. He said that Magnus is not playing and not sure why his name is on the list.

How come no other site reported about this? How could it be?
someone should tell liem of viet about this asap. he would join if he knows many strong players are in this tournament. he said he need to play strong playes very much.
