The event was the final in a series of 6. The top two in the final standings qualifying for the Candidates. The leaders going into the event were Aleksandra Goryachkina followed by Humpy Koneru, neither playing in the final event. Goryachkina looked strong favourite to qualify but if Anna Muzychuk had won and Zhu Jiner finished second then she would have missed out. Zhu started with 0/2 after losing to Anna Muzychuk but came back with five wins in a row before seeing out the event with two draws. Anna Muzychuk took first place on tie-break from Zhu but they shared grand prix points and this was not enough to overtake Goryachkina, only a win alone would have done that. So it was Zhu Jiner who won the Grand Prix and Goryachkina finished second. There are other routes to the Candidates including the Women's World Cup (3 places), the Grand Swiss (2 places) and the FIDE Women’s Events 2024-25 series 1 place. which takes place in 2026 and the complete field is yet to be decided.
