There is a special prize of 1,500 E for the "first woman" – I don’t know if that means the best finishing woman of all the groups or just the first woman in A Group. (Group A 85 players, Group B 66 players, Group C 21 players). Top prize for A Group winner is 3,000 E. Several chess femmes are playing – here are the A Group femme standings after Round 4: 8.
