49th National Women 2023 R5: Seven in the lead

by Shahid Ahmed - 05/07/2023

WGM Srija Seshadri (TN) held the top seed and defending champion IM Divya Deshmukh (MAH) to a draw. After two long victories, Divya gained an exchange against Srija in the fifth round. However, she was unable to convert her advantage into a full point. Srija found a combination which forced a perpetual check. Thus a draw was agreed. The other two leaders of the round, WIM Mounika Akshaya Bommini (AP) and WIM Mahalakshmi M (RSPB) had a well contested draw. IM Bhakti Kulkarni (Goa), WGM Mary Ann Gomes (RSPB) and IM Soumya Swaminathan (PSPB) won their respective games to join the leaders 4.5/5. Round 6 starts today at 10 a.m. IST. Photo: Aditya Sur Roy
