New Delhi: Challenger K. Humpy was battling an inferior endgame against champion Hou Yifan after 41 moves of the fourth game in the women’s World chess championship match at Tirana, Albania, on Friday.
Playing white, Yifan emerged slightly better from the opening lines of Ruy Lopez. Once the queens were off the board, Humpy had better defensive options after choosing not to castle.
