The 2019 Women's World Draughts Championship in international draughts was held from 11âÂÂ23 June 2019 in Yakutsk, Russia under the auspices of the International Draughts Federation (FMJD). Sixteen female players competed in the tournament, which was played as a round-robin.
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:
For places 1âÂÂ3, tiebreaks using the LehmannâÂÂGeorgiev system (15 minutes plus a 2-second increment per move for an unlimited number of games) were played if necessary; other places were shared.
