GM Pia Cramling has won all her games on board one for Sweden and leads with a stunning 2740 performance. Chinese wonder girl Hou Yifan has scored 6.0/8 on board one for a 2630 performance. One wonders for how long this 14-year-old is going to be listed as a WGM – she's a GM by any yardstick. We are thrilled to see an old friend, Martha Fierro of Ecuador, scoring 6.5/7 with a 2587 performance, and also Irina Krush performing at a 2578 level, both on board one for their countries.
