Exciting Details About FIDE Women’s World Chess Championship 2025: Prize Fund, Players, and How to Watch Live Streaming in India

The FIDE Women’s World Chess Championship 2025 is all set to kick off on April 3, promising to be one of the most thrilling events in women’s chess history. The tournament will run until April 21, featuring a fierce showdown between the reigning champion Ju Wenjun and her challenger Tan Zhongyi, both hailing from China. With a total prize fund of €500,000 up for grabs, the stakes are high for these talented players.

If the winner is determined in classical games, the champion will walk away with €300,000, while the runner-up will receive €200,000. However, if the competition goes into tie-breaks, the prize money will be distributed differently, with €275,000 going to the winner and €225,000 to the runner-up. FIDE has opted for a match-only format to crown the Women’s World Champion this year, with 12 classical games on the agenda. In case of a tie after the 12 games, tiebreak games with faster time controls will decide the ultimate victor.

Unfortunately for Indian fans, there will be no live telecast of the FIDE Women’s World Championship 2025 matches due to the absence of Indian broadcasters. However, viewers can still catch all the action through various live streaming platforms such as Chess.com, Chess24, FIDE’s Official YouTube Channel, and ChessBase India’s YouTube Channel, offering expert commentary and analysis.
