Women's World Chess Championship; Khanty-Mansiysk , Russia (09-11-2012/03-12-2012)

Anna Ushenina is the new champion, I got eliminated in 2nd round.

Anna Ushenina is the new champion after beating Antoaneta Stefanova in the final (3,5-2,5). My end of the tournament was in the 2nd round, where I was defeated by Harika Dronavalli from India. After losing the 1st game, I got some chances in the 2nd game, but I didn't manage to take those chances.

In the first round I had defeaten Georgian WGM Sopiko Khukhashvili (2383) in a very close and nervous match. After I lost my 2nd game of the normal match and also lost with white in the 1st game of the tiebreak, I was even on the edge of defeat. Luckily I could manage to win with black in the 2nd game, after which I won both my games in the tiebreak with time control of 10 minutes and 10 seconds increment.
