Since the November rating list is out, I was able to find the unofficial pairings of the Women’s World Championship’s first cycle. It will be a mini match of 2 Classical games and if necessary then rapid, blitz and armageddon game to finally determine the winner of the first cycle :). Hopefully the official pairings will be out soon so everyone can start preparing :).
