2007 Russian Championship Superfinals
Here are the women's final standings. Kovalevskaya had a dismal tournament, a real surprise to me as she is usually near the top of the standings. The final scores indicate the event was hard-fought - no easy draws granted by the ladies in their chess!

2. Tairova, Elena m RUS 2391 7
3. Ovod, Evgenija m RUS 2386 7
