🔥 Grand Chess Tour’s 10th Anniversary

♟️ Chess continues to be a global force, shaping both the competitive and social spheres!

🔥 Women’s World Chess Championship 2025 – Tan Strikes First!
Game 2 of the Women’s World Championship in Shanghai delivered serious drama: GM Tan Zhongyi outplayed reigning champ Ju Wenjun in a tough rook endgame, scoring the first full point of the match after 62 moves.

With this win, Tan takes the lead:
🏆 Tan 1.5 – 0.5 Ju
🕰️ Game 3: April 6 (rest day on April 5)
📍 Match: 12 classical games | Shanghai → Chongqing

This is the third world title clash between these two Chinese stars. Ju won in both 2018 and 2023, but this time Tan looks sharper and more confident. Her precise play and calm under pressure could be the key to flipping the script.

Will Ju bounce back in Game 3? The battle is heating up, and the crown is very much in play. 👑♟️
