Gambit Bonnevoie Women’s Team Shines with Two Individual Medals and Shared 3rd Place Finish
In a nail-biting finale, the Gambit Bonnevoie women’s team held last year’s champions, Tajfun Ljubljana, to a 2–2 draw. This result secured a shared third place, and for a moment, hopes were high for a podium finish based on tiebreaks. Unfortunately, the tiebreak system placed our team in fifth position.
The tournament was ultimately won by the powerhouse squad from the Monte Carlo Chess Club. Still, this result marks an excellent achievement for both our club and Luxembourgish chess. Two individual medals crowned our performance: GM Anna Ushenina earned bronze on board one, while FM Liwia Jarocka claimed gold on board five.
Our two teams in the Open section performed as expected in a highly competitive field featuring clubs from across Europe. The Open title went to Superchess Bucharest.
