Julius Bär SpeedChess Women´s Championship
Cuartos de final
Los cuartos de final del Speed Chess Women´s Championship arrancaron con dos emocionantes duelos. Polina Shuvalova derrotó a Hou Yifan en desempates tras ganar a tiempo la cuarta y última partida bala (en una posición perdida). Más tarde, Vaishali Rameshbabu eliminó a Alexandra Kosteniuk después de conseguir tres victorias consecutivas en las últimas partidas de la sección de rápidas para imponerse por 9-8.
En ambos casos, la ganadora final había perdido contra exactamente las mismas rivales en la edición anterior de la prueba, como señaló Dani Sharon en X. El año pasado, Hou y Kosteniuk -dos ex campeonas del mundo femeninas- habían derrotado a Shuvalova y Vaishali por 13½-7½ y 13-8, respectivamente.
