Shakhriyar Mamedyarov and Alexander Grischuk are the overall leaders of the FIDE Grand Prix after two tournaments. Both played in Moscow and Riga, and accumulate 10 points.
However, Mamedyarov and Grischuk will play only one of the two remaining legs of the FIDE Grand Prix, while their closest rivals in the global standings - Ian Nepomniachtchi (RUS) and Maxime-Vachier Lagrave (FRA) - will participate in both Hamburg and Tel Aviv. At the end of the four Grand Prix tournaments in December, the best two finishers will qualify to next year’s Candidates Tournament. The winner of that event will become the challenger of Magnus Carlsen in the 2020 World Championship match.
