World Juniors Chess Championship (Girls)
The official website reported the following norms were earned by the players:
GM Norm:
Hou Yifan CHN 2661 (Hou Yifan earned her first GM norm at Aeroflot earlier this year, so this is norm #2, not norm #3 as I believe I reported in an earlier post)

Kübra Öztürk TUR 2413 (Ozturk's first WGM norm, and the first ever earned by a Turkish female chess player according to official site)
Miranda Mikadze GEO 2410
