Cmilyte ahead, Stefanova on her heels

Antoaneta Stefanova © official site
Antoaneta Stefanova mated Kateryna Lahno and now has 8/10. However this is only good enough for second place as Viktorija Cmilyte has a remarkable 8½ after winning on top board with Black against Ketevan Arakhamia-Grant.

It's now clear that one of Cmilyte (8½) or Stefanova (8) will be first, or equal first, after the eleventh round.

In equal third to fourth places, on 7½ points, are Danielian and Matveeva.

Apart from medals and prize-money, the leading players will be aware of the 14 qualification places for the next World Championships. These four should be safe in that department, and play on the top two boards with the medals and major prizes at stake.
