Monika Socko\u00a0grabbed the sole lead in Round 5 and never looked back. Coming into the final round on 8\/10, a half-point ahead of\u00a0Gunay Mammadzada<\/strong>\u00a0(Azerbaijan),\u00a0Aleksandra Maltsevskaya<\/strong>\u00a0(Poland) and\u00a0Lilit Mkrtchain<\/strong>\u00a0(Armenia), Monika took a practical decision. Socko made a quick draw with Mkrtchain to secure the title as she had better tiebreaks over her main competitors.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Mammadzada and Maltsevskaya played a topsy-turvy game which eventually ended in a draw. As a result, Gunay took silver, but Alexandra and Lilit missed the podium as\u00a0Ulviyya Fataliyeva<\/strong>\u00a0(Azerbaijan) scored a crucial last-round victory over her compatriot Gulnar Mammadova and claimed bronze by dint of better Buchholz.\u00a0<\/p>
