20 ( +1 | -1 ) Wow!Carlsen took the third place? That's great. I heard Carlsen is among the invited players to the FIDE World Championship in Libia. Does anyone know will he participate?
The Sigeman Tournament 2004 organised by the Limhamn Chess Club and the Copenhagen Chess Federation took place in Malmo and Høje Taastrup (a suburb of Copenhagen) April 30th - May 9th 2004. Peter Heine Nielsen beat Curt Hansen to catch him in the final round both finished on 6/9. Half a point behind in 3rd was the World's youngest GM, Magnus Carlsen, who has been invited to play in the FIDE championships in Libya after becoming one of the FIDE President Kirsan Iljumzhinov's nominees.

15 ( +1 | -1 ) Carlsen will participateas a wildcard as far as I know. He was added to the participants list as a presidents nominee after several strong players turned down the offers to play.
