Humpy finishes joint first at Kazan Grand Prix chess

World No.4 Koneru Humpy pulled off a great win with an unusual opening move with black and rounded off a very successful tournament with a share of the first place at the FIDE Women Grand Prix Chess.

She was tied at 7.5 points with the higher rated Anna Muzychuk of Slovakia.

The Grand Prix Chess 2011-12 is a series of six tournaments and the Kazan event was the fourth. World champion Hou Yifan won the first two and then another Chinese player, Zhao Xue won the third.

After the fourth Grand Prix in Kazan, the last two are in Jermuk, Armenia and Istanbul, Turkey. Humpy was sixth in the first event in Rostov, Russia and did not play in Shenzhen, China and Nalchik, Russia.

Humpy, who had a share of the lead with two others after the penultimate round, beat Alisa Galliamova in the final round, while co-leader AnnaMuzychuk beat Nadezhda Kosintseva.

Humpy and Muzychuk were the only unbeaten players in the tournament and both had four wins and seven draws each for a total of seven and a half points each.

Humpy made the big surge in the last four rounds with three wins in the eighth, ninth and 11th rounds. Her wins in the ninth and 11th came with black pieces, though the last win was some lucky.

Viktorija Cmilyte, who was also at 6.5 points after the 10th round played a draw with Antoaneta Stefanova to finish at seven points. Hou Yifan, who was fourth after 10 rounds beat Elina Danielian in the final round to get to tied third with Cmilyte at seven points.

In the 11th and final round, Humpy with black pieces replied with an unusual e6 in what is sometimes known as the Franco-Sicilian defense. The game was fairly equal after 25 moves with white in no danger. But then Galliamova blundered and lost. The Russian resigned on the 34th move giving the Indian the full point and a share of the first place.

Considering her recent rating going down to 2589, the latest performance which had rating of 2643, Humpy should gain some valuable points and get back closer to 2600.

Humpy was ranked second in the world behind Judit Polgar as recent as November 2011, but has since slipped to No. 4 but this win should see start the climb back.

Polgar leads the women’s world ratings at 2709, while the current world champion Hou Yifan is second at 2623 and Muzychuk started this event in third place at 2598 and Humpy was fourth at 2589.

Earlier in the 10th round, Cmilyte won against Nadezhda Kosintseva and replaced the then leader Elina Danielian, who was defeated by Alisa Galliamova, who had lost four previous games. Anna Muzychuk and Humpy Koneru played draws against Hou Yifan and Alexandra Kosteniuk in the 10th round.

A road named after Veerasamy Naidu in Singapore

Veerasamy Road - Little India/ Singapore Veerasamy Road was renamed twice in its history; it was originally called Inche Lane, and was renamed Jalan Tambah in 1910. In 1927, the road was renamed again as Veerasamy Road, in honour of Dr N. Veerasamy Naidu (1865-1926), one of Singapore’s first Indian doctors and a leader in the local Indian community. Dr N Veerasamy Naidu was born in 1864. He was the son of Narayanasamy Naidu and Ramanuja Ammal. He learned Tamil from the age of four from his grandfather, Kuppusamy Naidu. He studied English at the Raffles School in Singapore and first worked at the lawyer’s office of Mr Cook.

He set up his own clinic called Indian Dispensary in Rochor Road and derived effective scientific and traditional treatments for a variety of new diseases. He was the Presid...
