The Final Chess Masters event, the finale of this year's Grand Slam, will take place in two stages. The first stage takes place from September 3-8 in Shanghai, and is a qualifier for the final in Bilbao, which runs from October 9 to 15. Vladimir Kramnik, Levon Aronian, Alexei Shirov and Wang Hao will battle it out in Shanghai, and the top two there go on to Bilbao, where world champion Viswanathan Anand and world #1 Magnus Carlsen await them. (Veselin Topalov also qualified for the event, but won't participate for unspecified "personal reasons".)
