February 05, 2025

In a statement on Tuesday, the world chess governing body, Fide, said that since the organisers of the 'Freestyle Chess Tour' have done away with all references to the "World Championship" title from its regulations, players wishing to participate in the Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Tour this year are no longer required to sign a waiver note.

BENGALURU:

Earlier Fide had stipulated that players wishing to participate in the 2025 Freestyle Chess Tour sign a waiver note by February 4 to remain eligible for the official World Championship cycle. The waiver note was one that provided players with a one-off exception from their existing contractual obligations towards Fide. In light of Freestyle Chess organisers doing away with 'World Championship' references for now, the waiver note is no longer necessary.
