The 44th Chess Olympiad 2022 is seeing a dramatic finish! When it seemed that Armenia and India sail to the Olympic gold of the open and women’s sections (respectively), the teams of Uzbekistan and Poland proved them wrong. With a convincing 3-1 victory in the 9th round over Armenia, Uzbekistan overtook the sole leadership of the Open section, while Poland defeated India with a narrow 2.5-1.5 victory and now four teams share the top of the Women’s section: India, Poland, Georgia and Kazakhstan.
The 10th penultimate round brings the top-board open section encounter between India2 and Uzbekistan, while the four leaders of the Women’s section play against each other with India vs Kazakhstan on the top-board, and Georgia vs Poland next to them. Scroll down for Round 10 team pairings of both events
The 10th round starts Monday, 8th of August at 15:00 (GMT+5:30). Women’s section LIVE / Open section LIVE
