2015 World Women's Chess Championship

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Women's World Chess Championship 2015 was the World Chess Federation FIDE originally scheduled on October 11 to 31 2014 but then the period from 16 March to 7 April, 2015 at the Olympic Park in the Russian Sochi shifted knockout tournament with 64 participants for the title of world champion in chess .

The world champion and first in the women's ranking, Hou Yifan , did not take part because she had previously agreed to a tournament in Hawaii. This, and the fact that two world championships in different formats were to take place in the same year (the second was later postponed to 2016) cost the world championship recognition in the chess world. The main referee of the tournament was Zsuzsa Verőci from Hungary .

March 28 reached Mariya Muzychuk , D. Harika , Pia Cramling and Natalia Pogonina the semi-finals, and Musytschuk Pogonina on March 31 the final. This was held from April 2nd to 5th, Musytschuk won with 2.5: 1.5 points. In the event of a tie, the decision would be on April 6 in the tiebreaker fallen.
