The Grand Chess Tour 2023 is a series of chess tournaments, which is the eighth edition of the Grand Chess Tour. It will consist of five tournaments with a total prize pool of US$1.4 million, including two tournaments with classical time control and three tournaments with faster time controls.^[1]^[2]

The lineup for the tour consisted of nine players, including the World Chess Champion Ding Liren, the World Chess Championship 2023 runner-up Ian Nepomniachtchi, Jan-Krzysztof Duda, the defending champion Alireza Firouzja, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Anish Giri, Fabiano Caruana, Wesley So, and Richárd Rapport.^[3]^[4]

Format

The tour will consist of five tournaments, two classicals and three rapid & blitz, respectively. Rapid & Blitz tournaments consisted of two parts – rapid (2 points for win, 1 for draw) and blitz (1 point for win, 0.5 for draw). Combined result for both portions was counted in overall standings.^[5]

The tour points were awarded as follows:

Place	Tour Points	Classical prize money	Rapid & Blitz prize money
1st	12/13*	$100,000	$40,000
2nd	10	$65,000	$30,000
3rd	8	$48,000	$25,000
4th	7	$32,000	$20,000
5th	6	$26,000	$15,000
6th	5	$21,000	$11,000
7th	4	$18,500	$10,000
8th	3	$16,000	$9,000
9th	2	$13,000	$8,000
10th	1	$10,500	$7,000

If a player wins 1st place outright (without the need for a playoff), they are awarded 13 points instead of 12.
Tour points and prize money are shared equally between tied players.

Schedule

The events in St. Louis are set to take place during the months of November and December, compared to the previous editions where they took place during the months of August and September. The change was implemented to avoid scheduling clashes with the 2023 Chess World Cup and the 2023 FIDE Grand Swiss Tournament.^[6]

^ Ding withdrew before the Poland Rapid and Blitz event took place, citing fatigue. As a result of this change, Levon Aronian was chosen as a wildcard to replace him for the event.^[9]
^ Jan-Krzysztof Duda withdrew from the Sinquefield Cup after round 1 due to illness; his round 1 result was not counted towards the standings.
