passes along a credible rumor from a Russian chess news site: Hou Yifan of China and Humpy Koneru of India may play their world championship match
in Chicago later this year.
And look at the
powerhouse lineup for the Grand Prix event to be held here
in Chicago August 1-15!
When FIDE is involved and the lead time is short, I get a bit nervous. Please let us know if we can help!
Heh: see the comments for the (amusing) probable explanation! You know, we'd be a great site for the Anand-Gelfand match....

Apparently google translates "Rostov"
as "Chicago"...
SYSTRAN based translators are the best
for the Russin --> English translation. E.g. here is the same page translated by Babelfish:

Hilarious!
Thank you.
