Saturday’s game between Aleksandra Goryachkina and Alexandra Kosteniuk had some interesting moments, although I guess we always have to keep this in mind: Goryachkina needed a draw, Kosteniuk needed a win.
The Accelerated Dragon - a sharp weapon against 1.e4
After 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6! leads to the so-called "Accelerated Dragon Defense". On this DVD the Russian grandmaster and top women player Nadezhda Kosintseva reveals the secrets of her favourite opening.
For Alexandra Kosteniuk this World Championship cycle is over
In the game between Kateryna Lagno and Tan Zhongyi, the game was balanced throughout. With all four games drawn, the players will have to decide their match in a tiebreak.
The tiebreak starts with four 15+10 games
Finally, a side note: in this tournament for women, two men were also allowed to play a (small) role today!
Two young members of the Olympiad-winning team of the host country, Uzbekistan, made the ceremonial first moves of game 4 between Lagno and Tan Zhongyi: GMs Nodirbek Yakubboev and Shamsiddin Vokhidov. #FIDEWomenCandidates
