What is going on with Baginskaite? She lost today to a player rated 200 points below her.  Is Baginskaite ill?  Anna Zatonskih had no business drawing her game today against Foisor.  Don't get complacent.  Way too early to be doing that!  Melekhina continues her slide.  It's probably just a matter of time before quits pro chess altogether.
