The new championship, titled the Total Chess World Championship Tour, will consist of four events each year and crown a combined champion across three disciplines – Fast Classic, Rapid, and Blitz chess. “We expect this to become one of the most prestigious events in the entire chess Calendar,” says Kjell Madland, CEO of Norway Chess and of the new championship.

Key Highlights:

  • The Total Chess World Championship Tour will crown an overall champion across three disciplines: Fast Classic, Rapid, and Blitz. The winner will be crowned FIDE World Combined Champion.
  • The tour will consist of four tournaments per year in various global cities.
  • Minimum :2.7M annual prize pool across the Tour (:750k per event for the first three events; :450k for the Finals), plus performance bonuses.
  • A pilot tournament is planned for fall 202C, with the first full championship season in 2027.
