Grand Prix Geneva is the third leg of the Grand Prix circuit for 2017 that will help determine two players that will get invited to the Candidates Tournament in March of 2018. For the Grand Prix circuit there are 24 of the best chess players in the world. These 24 players will end up playing in 3 of the 4 events and will get points based on where they finish.
