Judit played third board for the Hungarian MEN'S TEAM and scored
10.5/13 , playing 13 out of 14 rounds - no one on the team played
more rounds than her - she only sat out once, in the fifth round against
India.

- one of the quickest defeats of top Grandmaster in years - despite
being rated over 2670 he only got to make 21 moves!

21-OCT
|
|
Final round: Grandmaster draws among all players. Khalifman was
so far ahead in the previous round he had already won the tournament.
While this was one of Judit's poorest results in some time, she was seconded
by her new husband (Gustav Fonts, a veterinarian) for part of this tournament,
perhaps not the best strategy from a competitive standpoint.
Plus, she had to risk losing her second game against Khalifman, and had
little reason to do anything but draw in the last round. I have no doubt
she'll bounce back in the Olympiad and Lisbon. View Judit's games.
