2008 U.S. Women's Chess Championship
Round 7 has come and gone - Krush won to go from 5.5 to 6.5; Zatonskih lost to stay at 6.0. Today they face each other in a game that may decide who is the 2008 Champion. Susan Polgar comments.
This is a critical game - but the other women aren't coasting to the finish line. There's an intense battle for third place right now.
Standings after 7:
1 Krush, Irina IM 2515 USA 6.5
2 Zatonskih, Anna IM 2490 USA 6.0
3 Abrahamyan, Tatev WFM 2280 USA 5.0
4-5 Tuvshintugs, Batchimeg WIM 2289 USA 4.5
4-5 Rohonyan, Katerine WGM 2318 USA 4.5
6 Battsetseg, Tsagaan WIM 2251 USA 3.5
7 Zenyuk, Iryna WFM 2205 USA 2.5
8 Epstein, Esther WM 2194 USA 1.5
9 Airapetian, Chouchanik WFM 2143 USA 1.0
10 Jamison, Courtney 2064 USA 0.0
Very exciting!
