Английская Википедия:FIDE Grand Swiss Tournament 2019
The FIDE Grand Swiss Tournament 2019 was a chess tournament that formed part of the qualification cycle for the World Chess Championship 2021. It was played on October 10 to 21 2019,[1] on the Isle of Man.[2] This was the first time that a tournament of this type was used as a qualifying tournament for the Candidates Tournament.
Wang Hao and Fabiano Caruana shared first place, with Wang Hao winning on tie breaks and thereby qualifying for the 2020–21 Candidates Tournament. Of the players who shared third place, Kirill Alekseenko had the best tie break and became eligible for the Candidates wild card as the next-highest placed non-qualifier, as Caruana had already qualified for the Candidates by virtue of being the runner-up in the previous World Championship. Alekseenko was later selected as the Candidates wild card.[3]
The highest-placed female players were Harika Dronavalli (83rd) and Dinara Saduakassova (85th), with Harika winning the women's trophy on tie breaks.
Format
The tournament was an 11-round Swiss-system tournament, with 154 players invited, including 100 qualifying by rating.[4][5] The qualification by rating was based on the average of the 12 rating lists from July 2018 to June 2019. The list of qualifiers (except for those qualifying by continental championships) was published on 10 June 2019.[6]

- Time limit of 100 minutes, + 50 minutes added after move 40, + 15 minutes added after move 60, + 30 second per move increment from move 1.
