Candidates - Gukesh and Tan are the outright winners!

Round 14

Both events are double round-robins, meaning that each player will face each of their rivals twice, once with white and once with black. Fourteen rounds of the tournament will be played over three weeks, with four rest days.

The time controls for each section are different:

Open: 120 minutes for the first 40 moves, followed by 30 minutes for the rest of the game, with an increment of 30 seconds per move starting from move 41.

Women’s: 90 minutes for the first 40 moves, followed by 30 minutes for the rest of the game, with an increment of 30 seconds per move starting from move 41.

If there is a tie for first place after 14 rounds, a rapid (and blitz if necessary) playoff to determine the winner shall be played.
