Women's FIDE Grand Prix Series (20-02-2011/06-03-2010)

7,5-9, a very nice win today!



It is always good to take away a loss with a nice win!! Martha Fierro made one mistake, 18...Qb4? and after that she never had a chance. I am really happy with my play today.

With 2 rounds to go I am leading, followed by Marie Sebag on 1 point and Koneru Humpy at 1,5. Still nothing clear yet!

Have a look at the standings here.

  • GM Elina Danielian ARM - Martha Fierro ECU 1-0
