Grandmaster Koneru Humpy has done it - she is through to the finals of FIDE Women's World Cup 2025, and has booked her spot in the Women's Candidates Chess Tournament 2026!

Humpy defeated Lei Tingjie in a nerve-wracking tiebreak encounter in the semifinals. The 15+10 Rapid tiebreaks match ended in a draw - and the 10+10 Rapid tiebreaks was also drawn. Humpy lost the first Rapid game, and hit back in the next one to force the 5+3 Blitz tiebreaks!

This is where Humpy shone through - she won with both colors in the Blitz tiebreaks and closed the match, making her way into the finals!

Huge congratulations to Koneru Humpy for making it to the finals and qualifying for the Candidates. It will be an All-Indian final as Humpy will take on Divya Deshmukh!
