Russian Grandmaster and journalist Sergei Yuryevich Shipov believes that the outcome of the just-ended Women’s World Chess Championship match may be a good omen for three-time Russian Women’s Champion Aleksandra Yuryevna Goryachkina, who is to play in the 2024 FIDE Women’s Candidates Tournament scheduled in Toronto, Canada, from April 3 to 25, 2024. “Indeed, in women’s chess, China is ahead of all others. But yet I believe it is quite possible to take away the world crown from them”, Shipov told TASS on Sunday. “I think Aleksandra Yuryevna Goryachkina, who is at a good mature age, is quite capable of winning the Candidates Tournament and defeating 居文君 (Jū Wénjūn) the second time. I believe in it”.
