The 2024 World Blitz Chess Championship was the 4th edition of the annual chess tournament held by FIDE to determine the world champion in chess played under blitz time controls. Since 2012, FIDE has held the World Rapid and Blitz Championships at a joint tournament. The tournament was held in New York City, United States, from 30 to 31 December 2024.

After three drawn tiebreak games in the finals of the Open section, Magnus Carlsen proposed and Ian Nepomniachtchi agreed to share first place. FIDE controversially allowed the agreement and changed the rules of the tournament to permit them to do so. After two drawn tiebreak games, the Women's section was won by Ju Wenjun.

Details

The tournament was open for players with a rating of 2550 and above, as well as reigning national champions. The total prize fund was $450,000.

The tournament followed a Swiss system consisting of 13 rounds for the Open section and 11 rounds for the Women's section. The top 8 players from the Swiss system proceeded to the knockout rounds, where players played four-game matches in quarter finals, semi-finals, and finals. The time control is blitz, with each player given 3 minutes plus 2 additional seconds per move, starting from the first move. Since 2012, FIDE has held the World Rapid and Blitz Championships at a joint tournament.

Controversies

On 27 December, defending champion Magnus Carlsen declared that he would not participate due to previously having been fined and penalized for violating the dress code by wearing jeans during the World Rapid Chess Championship 2024. However, on 29 December, Carlsen reversed his decision and announced that he would indeed take part in the tournament, after FIDE relaxed its dresscode rules and allowed him to continue wearing jeans, which he did.

Daniil Dubov was late to his match against Hans Niemann. He stated that he had overslept, although later comments made by Dubov in an interview led to speculation that he had intentionally forfeited. As a result of Dubov missing the game, Niemann was awarded a win and Dubov a forfeit loss. This would prove to be relevant as Dubov would finish the Day 1 Swiss-system tournament in a ten-way tie for first place, with only the top eight players advancing to the Day 2 Knockout stage according to the tournament's tiebreak criteria. Of consequence, the first tiebreak criterion (Buchholz cut 1) treats forfeit losses different from played losses. As a result, Dubov finished in 10th place by tiebreaks and was eliminated from the tournament. However, if Dubov had played Niemann and lost (rather than receiving a forfeit loss), he would have finished in 8th place by tiebreaks and advanced to the knockout stage.

Magnus Carlsen and Ian Nepomniachtchi finished the final round of the Open section tied 2-2, which began a tiebreak phase: first player to win a game would win the tournament. After three tiebreak games ended in draws, Carlsen proposed to Nepomniachtchi that they share the championship, and asked an arbiter if such a thing would be possible. Even though FIDE's tournament rules called for another tiebreak game in this situation, FIDE president Arkady Dvorkovich used his authority to agree to the proposal, and both players were declared winners of the Open section, leading to criticism from the chess community.
