Georgia brilliantly concluded the event by defeating the host country and three-times World Champions China. Georgia took the gold medal with 17 match points, conceding only one tie to Russia.
Still holding a hope for the gold medal in case of Georgia’s failure in the final round, Russia put up a powerful performance against USA, convincingly winning the match 3½ – ½ and the silver medal as well.
China is third with 11 match points, winning the bronze.
