The 2017 Women's World Draughts Championship in international draughts was held from 1âÂÂ15 October, 2017 in Tallinn, Estonia. It was held under the auspieces of the International Draughts Federation (FMJD). The championship was played as a 15-round round-robin tournament.
Three rounds were played in the Hotel Euroopa, while the others were played at the Paul Keres Chess House. The total prize money for the tournament was 20,000 euros. The 2017 World Draughts Championship took place simultaneously at the same locations.
Reigning Women's World Draughts Champion Natalia Sadowska and former champion Zoja Golubeva participated in the championship. Zoja Golubeva won the tournament and became the women's world champion.
The games were played with the official FMJD classical time control: 80 minutes plus a 1-minute increment per move. FMJD regulations prohibited players from agreeing to a draw before each had completed 40 moves; doing so required the referee to award both players 0 points.
The final rankings were determined by total points. If two or more players finished with the same score, the following tiebreaks were applied:
