Freestyle Chess is a modern twist on traditional chess, also known as Chess960, where the starting positions of the back-rank pieces are randomized. This format eliminates the reliance on memorized openings, encouraging players to rely on creativity and strategic thinking from the very first move. 

Founded by five-time World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen and entrepreneur Jan-Henric Buettner, Freestyle Chess has gained prominence through events like the Freestyle Chess G.O.A.T. Challenge and the ongoing 2025 Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Tour. These tournaments feature elite players competing in various global locations, including Paris, Las Vegas, and Cape Town.
