Two Hearts Beat as One

On the second and last day of the inaugural “光明科学城杯” (“Guāngmíng Science City Cup”) Online Chess Stars Tournament, everything ended as it began — with the team 譚中怡 (Tán Zhōngyí) & 余泱漪 (Yú Yāngyī) winning the victory with 7½, ahead of 赵雪 (Zhào Xuě) & 韋奕 (Wéi Yì) (6½), 雷挺婕 (Léi Tǐngjié) & 王皓 (Wáng Hào) (5½), and, last but least, the rating favourite team 侯逸凡 (Hóu Yìfán) & 丁立人 (Dīng Lìrén) (4½). 余泱漪 (Yú Yāngyī) was also the best scorer in the whole tournament (5½/6), as his female teammate 譚中怡 (Tán Zhōngyí), aside from being the best female scorer ex aequo with 赵雪 (Zhào Xuě), remained the only woman to have scored a draw against men, namely: 丁立人 (Dīng Lìrén).
