The CrunchLabs Masters is the third tournament of the Champions Chess Tour 2024. Based on their performances in the last CCT event, some players get to skip the first two days of this tournament. GMs Alireza Firouzja (Division I winner), GM Magnus Carlsen (Division I runner-up), and GM Maxime Vachier-Lagrave (Division II winner) are already in Division I and will start their tournament on July 19, with the other five players still to be determined.

The pool for the Tour Finals remains $500,000 making the total available on the Tour a cool $1.7 million. Also new for 2024, the time control for every stage will be 10+2.
