This year, eight grandmasters from eight different countries will fight in a single round-robin event. The time control is 90 minutes for 40 moves followed by 30 minutes for the remainder of the game, with 30-second increments from move 1. According to the ‘Malmö rules’, no draws are allowed before move 40.
