Koneru Humpy, Aleksandra Kosteniuk, Hou Yifan, and Pia Cramling reached the Semi Finals of the World Women's Chess championships being held at Nalchik, Russia.
They gifted themselves a rest day since none of them have to play the tie breaks. Humpy was the most convincing of the four as she crushed Yang Shen 2-0. Pia Cramling caused a mini upset. The remaining 4 are all over 2500 and the remaining matches are expected to be strong.
Quarter final results:
Kosteniuk vs Ushenina 1.5-.5
Humpy vs Shen 2-0
Yifan vs Mkrtchian 1.5-.5
Cramling vs Stefanova 1.5-.5
