The competition is a single-elimination tournament for 16 players. It is played with fast time controls: each player has no main time and five 40-second byoyomi periods, as of the 23nd South-West Qiwang in 2024.[1] Formerly, in 2021 and earlier, each player had 30 seconds to play each move, as well as ten extra periods of 60 seconds.[2]
