R Vaishali Scripts History, Becomes 1st Player To Defend Grand Swiss Title | #plainspeak | News81

Grandmaster Rameshbabu Vaishali won the FIDE Women’s Grand Swiss on Monday (September 15), scripting history as the first player to defend the title. Vaishali held out Tan Zhongyi, a former Women’s World Champion, to a draw and took the lead in the table. Although she and Russia’s Kateryna Lagno had the same number of points (eight out of a possible 11), Vaishali’s better tiebreak score earned her the coveted crown. n18oc_indiaNews18 Mobile App – https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
