of Armenia offered a serious bid to championship. The Armenian
chess players, who led the tournament chart with 26.5 points,
defeated the Chinese team, which held the second place with 25.5
points. The score was 2.5:1.5. With only three rounds left till the
end of the tournament, the men's team of Armenia strengthened its
leading position with 29 points, and is ahead of the Chinese team
by 2 points. The Russian team rose to the third place on the chart,
beating the Ukrainian team 3:1. Hence, the Armenians are close to the
title of champion. Although our chess players still have three more
rounds to play, they have already played with the strongest teams on
the tournament and can surely defeat the other teams as well, and win
the title of champion on Chess Olympiad for the first time. So far
the best result of the Armenian team has been a bronze. The Armenian
chess players took the third place for three times.
