Kosteniuk takes silver in the FIDE Grand-Prix in Batumi 2016
On May 2, 2016 the Batumi’s Grand-Prix was finished. Thanks to the victories in the last two rounds, I was able to finish the tournament on the clear 2nd place with 6,5 points out of 11. Valentina Gunina won the event, Nino Batsiashvili took third place.
It was my second trip to Batumi. As you might remember I already had a chance to come to Batumi in 2012 when I took part in the Women’s World Rapid and Blitz Championships and also took silver medal in the Rapid Competition.
