Where can I download the PGN files for the World Chess 960 championship from 2019, that was won by Wesley So?

I can view the games on the website e.g, https://www.frchess.com/stream but I want to download the games onto my own machine. pgnmentor and chessgames do not seem to have recorded these games (only "classical chess" games)

The goto site for downloadable pgns for regular chess is Mark Crowther's "The Week in Chess". The good news is that he also covers 960 or Fischer Random. This is TWIC's page for the World Fischer Random Chess Championship 2019.

The link for the pgn files is here.

Semi-finals and finals:

You can try looking up 'chess960', '960' , '9LX', 'chess9LX', 'chess 9LX', 'chess 960' or 'fischer random' in lichess studies

for example you can find the 2019 FIDE fischer random world championship finals here
