The championship featured a strong field comprising titled players, experienced professionals, and promising young talents. Right from the opening round, the tournament witnessed several exciting encounters as players battled through nine rounds of Swiss-system competition.

The tournament attracted participants representing five national federations France (FRA), Germany (GER), India (IND), Kenya (KEN), and the United States of America (USA) adding an international flavour to the competition and further enhancing the prestige of the event.
