The Fédération Internationale des Échecs (FIDE) has finally announced that the vis-à-vis Women’s World Chess Championship match between 谭中怡 (Tán Zhōngyí) and 居文君 (Jū Wénjūn) will be held both in 上海 (Shànghǎi) and 重庆 (Chóngqìng), China from 2 to 20 May 2018. More precisely, 上海 (Shànghǎi) will host the first half (2–9 May), and 重庆 (Chóngqìng) the latter half (11–20 May). For any organisational and financial support China has thus made itself responsible for saving the reliability of the last Knockout Women’s World Chess Championship Tournament held in Iran, while any discussion about the “format” of the Women’s World Chess Championship appears to have been postponed until the next General Assembly of FIDE.
