The Tata Steel Chess Tournament 2024 is the 86th edition of the annual chess tournament held in Wijk aan Zee. It is being held from 13–28 January 2024.[1] The competition is following a similar format to the previous year's edition, taking place at the Dorpshuis De Moriaan in Wijk aan Zee, Netherlands, while round 9 of the Masters section is set to be played at the AFAS Circustheater in The Hague, Netherlands as part of the competition's "Chess on Tour" event.[2]
Organization
The tournament is a fourteen-player, single round-robin tournament, meaning there were 13 rounds with each player facing the others once.
The field of 14 players in the Masters section is set to include the defending champion Anish Giri,[3] and both the defending World Chess Champion and Women's World Chess Champion, Ding Liren and Ju Wenjun, with Ding set to play his first international event since May 2023 after taking a hiatus from professional chess due to illness.[4] Notably, the current number one of the FIDE world rankings and former World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen did not play at the event for the first time since 2014, with Tournament Director Jeroen van den Berg citing Carlsen's absence due to "scheduling conflicts".[5]
Regulations
The time control was 100 minutes for the first 40 moves, 50 minutes for the next 20 moves, plus a 30-second increment per move. Players got 1 point for a win, ½ point for a draw and 0 points for a loss.[2]
