FIDE Women's World Chess Championship 2016 (Games and Results)

FIDE Women's World Chess Championship 2016

The Women's World Chess Championship took place in Lviv 2nd to 14th March 2016. Hou Yifan regained the title by beating Mariya Muzychuk 6-3. Muzychuk won the title last year in a knockout event where Hou Yifan declined to defend her title. The result was more or less in line with their respective ratings. Muzychuk fought well but the turn around from pressing for a win to losing game 6 seemed like a body blow.
