In the tenth round of the FIDE Women Grand Prix in Ankara Anna Muzychuk (above
left) lost a good chance to gain an advantage against Viktorija Cmilyte, and
game finished in a draw.

Humpy Koneru (above right) confidently won her game against Kubra Ozturk to
catch up with Slovenian player. Thus both of them lead in the tournament with
7,5 points, half a point above Zhao Xue, who won against Betul Yildiz and placed
third with one round to go.

Tatiana Kosintseva (above) showed good preparation today and caught her opponent
Ju Wenjun in the opening. The Chinese player failed to find the exact moves
which would hav led the game to a force draw and as a result was outplayed by
Russian GM.
The games Stefanova-Socko and Batkhuyag-Lufei ended peacefully.

The last round is going to decide the overall second place in the current
FIDE Grand Prix series. Humpy Koneru (above before round ten) plays white against
Monika Socko, who seems to be not in best shape, while Anna Muzychuk is going
to face Ruan Lufei, who plays with white and is placed fourth in the tournament.
Zhao Xue, who also got good chances to fight for medals, plays with white against
Tatiana Kosintseva. Note that the games start at 11:00 a.m. local time.
