The World Chess Championship 2018 for the title of world champion in chess , for the Chinese women Tan Zhongyi as the reigning world champion and Ju Wenjun as the winner of the FIDE Grand Prix women from 2015 to 2016 were qualified, took place between 2 and 20 May 2018th Ju's hometown Shanghai (May 2nd - 9th, 2018) and Tan's hometown Chongqing (May 11th - 20th) were named as the venues for the duel originally planned for 2017 . The main referee was Anastasia Sorokina from Belarus . In the duel, the challenger Ju Wenjun prevailed with 5½: 4½ and is the first time world chess champion.

A lack of sponsor interest at the last World Championships and the extension of the game date to the end of March 2018 offered in the tender led to a postponement to 2018.

After a changeful course in which Ju dominated, she was one point ahead in the tenth game, which is why Tan had to win to successfully defend her title. Tan therefore started an attack attempt with the black stones, which was however repulsed by Ju. Ju from then on played for a draw despite an extra pawn , then tried to attack, but swapped the queens for a final with no black chances instead of winning a second pawn. As Ju aimed for, the game soon ended in a draw, making her the sixth Chinese world chess champion.

The next World Cup was played in November 2018 in a knockout format . Ju defended her title in Khanty-Mansiysk .
