{Ju Wenjun played this game as if it was the last game of a knock-out and she
had to win to remain in the tournament. Of course, all she needed was a draw
for a good chance to clinch second place. Her plan backfired badly and
Kosteniuk was able to win against a pawn structure that was simply too
shattered from the early aggression.} 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 d6 4. O-O Bd7
