The Women's World Team Championship took place in Yingbo, China 2nd-11th September 2009.

China met bottom placed Vietnam in the final round and drew 2-2. The result was rather odd. Vietnam were at the bottom of the field and it looked like a formality that they would beat them and go on to take the title. Instead the games proceeded for a long time before what appears to be a "package deal" (probably offered by a now panicked Chinese team) of draws which drew the match 2-2. FIDE seem to tolerate such agreements amongst the teams captains in Olympiads. In this case Vientnam had a big advantage on board one and a winning advantage on board four when the draws were agreed with the other two balanced. This is speculation, but really the only rational explanation of the result and the games I can come up with. Why Vietnam chose to take the draw is unclear to me. I've been a long term opponent of this kind of deal and this was just about the worst case scenario, they didn't even just halve the match at the start (Russia could have then taken the title with a 4-0 win) but waited until it was, quite frankly, too late, even under the norms of this rather disreputable practice. This draw allowed China to pip Russia for Gold on tie-break. Sadly, for themd, long term leaders Poland lost for a second time in row and ended up 6th.
