Budapest Chess Olympiad 2024

The pairings for Round 1 of the 2024 Chess Olympiad have been published.

Despite FIDE’s earlier claims of record participation, 20 teams in both the Open and Women’s sections were not paired.

Assuming no additional dropouts due to visa issues, the Open section is expected to have 177 teams, down from 188 at the 2022 Olympiad in Chennai. The Women’s section is projected to have 163 teams.
