Our correspondent Anna Dergatscheva was born on 26.02.1969 in Moscow. She studied Russian language and literature. She lives in Germany and plays in Germany's top women's division as well as the men's regional league.
All pictures in this article were sent to us directly from Bled by Anna Dergatscheva before the final round.
One round before the end of the tournament it was only the ladies' section that was open. The Russian men could relax and keep their fingers crossed for their female colleagues. After Hungary had agreed to a draw against the Armeniens the Russian team quickly did the same against Israel.
For the women it was different. Three teams were fighting for the medals: Georgia, China and Russia. China was half a point ahead and had to play against Bulgaria. The Russian team with Maya Chiburdanidze, Nana Ioseliani and Ketevan Arakhamia-Grant faced the strong Yugoslavs. The Georgians had dominated the section until the 11th round. But then they lost 0.5:2.5 to Poland and went on to lose the next two rounds as well.
