The Grand Swiss is a 11-round Swiss tournaments, meaning players on the same score face each other every round. However, no player faces another player more than once. If two players are tied for first place entering the final round but they played earlier in the tournament, they would each face someone just below them in the standings instead of each other for a second time.
The time control in the Grand Swiss is 100 minutes for the first 40 moves, then 50 minutes for the next 20 moves, and finally 15 minutes for the rest of the game. There is a 30-second increment starting from move 1.
