| Notes |
| Ratings |
- FIDE ratings are from the February 2024 list
- ICU ratings are from the February 2024 list
|
| Discrepancies |
- Lightfoot - Hourican, round 1, is shown as 0-1 on Chess-Results and in rating reports, but as 0-1 on live boards
- Brearley - Earls, round 3, is shown as 1-0 on Chess-Results and in rating reports, but as 0-1 on live boards
- This report uses the Chess-Results / rating reports results. The final position in Lightfoot - Hourican is overwhelmingly winning for White, so the "0-1" is an anomaly (White loss on time? missing moves?)
