The Daily Update: Russia Leads the ETC

In the battle between first-place Azerbaijan and Armenia, the Armenians came out on top, 2.5-1.5. That, together with Russia’s win over Georgia, created a three-way tie for first place: Russian, Armenia, and Azerbaijan all have 11 points after 7 rounds. As the first tie-breaker is individual points, Russian leads and Armenia is in second – but there are still plenty of rounds to go.
