FIDE Women World Chess Cup 2025 is taking place July 5 – July 29 in Batumi, Georgia, and is one of the major events of The Chess Calendar.
Divya Deshmukh is having a fantastic tournament and is already at the semifinals. She started with wins vs Mgeladze and Injac, but had to go through two consecutive difficult tiebreaks to reach the semifinal. Especially emotional was Divya’s tiebreak vs her compatriot Harika Dronavalli. See the emotions of Divya Deshmukh right after the final game.
