    DANIELIAN SUFFERS DEFEAT, MKRTCHIAN PLAYS IN DRAW

    Armenia

    The 7th round of the Women's Grand Prix, taking place in Nalchik,
    started off with a silence minute - the participants stood in memory
    of FIDE's ex-president, Florencio Campomanes.

    In the reported round Zhao Xue finally scored her first win, overcoming
    Armenia's Elina Danielian. In the accepted Quinn's gambit, at the end
    of the opening, Elina Danielian developed a pretty solid play with
    mutual chances. However, she chose the wrong plan which worsened her
    position considerably. Danielian was forced to give up her queen on
    21st move and lost.

    Lilit Mkrtchian, who played with white, was overcome by Georgia's
    player Nana Dzagnidze. After making several mistakes, Lilit had to
    finish the game in draw on the 55th move.
