An eventful round

There is already a Chinese woman on the throne of the women’s world champion, and there are also two Chinese women playing in the current Candidates Final. And Zhu Jiner seems to be making her way into this circle. In the overall Grand Prix ranking, she is already in a position that would entitle her to participate in the next Candidates Tournament, and at the event in New Delhi, she does not seem to want to be ousted from it.

Facing Humpy Koneru in the fourth round, Zhu simply had to make solid moves — and victory almost came by itself:
