After playing in a men’s tournament,Hou has gained psychologically and should dominate Humpy in the coming WC. Hou will also have the whole Chinese chess establishment helping her out. Humpy is not in an envious position. That said,Humpy is still the best woman out there,baring the great Judith and with a bit of psychological resolve and hopefully good prep,she should take the fight to Hou.
Yifan is probably ready to stop playing these all-girl events. If she wants to progress she should use J Polgar strategy now.
