CHENNAI: Finally, the Premier national women's chess title was
decided on tiebreak. Mary Ann
Gomes of Airport Authority of India, who drew her last-round game against Kiran
Manisha Mohanty of Orissa and Eesha Karavade of Maharashtra, who got the
better of Padmini Rout of Orissa on Wednesday tied for first place with eight
points each but the former's tiebreak (average of opponents' score) stood her in
good stead in the end.
The Kolkata girl, who won the winner's purse of Rs 75000, said she was delighted to take her maiden national senior women's title. "When I think of it, I feel great joy. I dedicate this title to my mother Freda Gomes," said the 22-year-old IM-elect.
International Master Eesha Karavade scoring a surprisingly quick final round victory over Woman Grandmaster Padmini Rout. The Grunfeld game saw white wresting the advantage early, and a rook for minor piece sacrifice by Padmini did not improve her position. Eesha's queen and double rooks decided the issue in 32 moves. The Pune girl has always been in the top bracket ever since she started playing in the senior women's national 10 years ago at the age of 14 in Lucknow.
By far, this has been Eesha's best performance. "I train with Raju at Hyderabad (with D Harika's coach) and I am right now focused on playing chess, taking it as a profession," said Eesha, who scored 5.5 points in the last six rounds. Experienced Tania Sachdev of Air India secured the third spot with an energetic victory over Woman International Master Sai Meera of Indian Bank.
