The 2011 women's chess world championship was the duel between defending champion Hou Yifan and her challenger K. Humpy for the title of world chess champion from November 14 to 24, 2011 in the Albanian capital Tirana . The main judge was Panagiotis Nikolopoulos from Greece , assisted by Carol Jarecki ( British Virgin Islands ). The ten-game competition was won early by Hou Yifan after eight games, so she successfully defended her title. The organizer was the World Chess Federation FIDE . With the opening and closing ceremonies, the event lasted from November 13th to 30th, 2011.

background

In the world championship cycle of the women's world chess championship in 2010 and 2011, the women's world chess championship was determined for the first time alternately in the knockout system and in a duel between the world champion and the winner of the FIDE Grand Prix . Hou Yifan had won both the FIDE Women's Grand Prix 2009-2011 and the 2010 World Knockout Chess Championship, which made the Grand Prix runner-up K. Humpy the challenger.

The most elo player Judit Polgár did not take part because she refused all women’s tournaments. Behind her were Hou Yifan and K. Humpy at the time of the duel in November 2011 in second and third place in the women's world rankings.

Regulations

The official FIDE regulations for the duel, including the opening and closing ceremony, planned up to 19 days for the duel. The games should take place at 3 p.m.

The time to consider was 90 minutes for the first 40 moves and then a further 30 minutes for the rest of the game, as well as a time bonus of 30 seconds per move from the first move.

The duel was scheduled for ten games, from which at least 5.5 points were necessary for victory. A draw after the regular games one should tiebreak decide. To this end, four games with a time limit of 25 minutes each for the entire game plus a ten second time bonus per move should take place.

In the event of a further tie, a duel should take place over two games of five minutes each for the entire game with a time bonus of three seconds per move. In the event of a tie, a total of five such duels should take place. If everyone had ended up tied, a so-called sudden death would have decided.

For the Sudden Death it should be drawn who can choose the colors of the game. The time to consider would have been five minutes for White and four minutes for Black with a time bonus of three seconds each from move 61. White would have had to win the game to emerge victorious from the duel, otherwise the black player would have won even in a draw.

There was a ten-minute break between the tiebreaker games.

The opening ceremony took place on November 13, 2011, and the first game was played the following day. The closing ceremony took place on November 30, 2011, despite Hou Yifan's early victory.

Result

Hou Yifan won the duel early on November 24, 2011 with 5.5 to 2.5 points after eight games and successfully defended her title.
