Bursa: Turkey beats Israel, USA leads the field

By master

The big surprise in round seven was Turkey’s 2½-1½ win over Israel (Sutovsky and Rodshtein lost to Yilmaz and Esen). The USA beat Greece with the same score, while Russia drew Armenia. That meant that the US is now in the sole lead, with twelve match points to Russia’s eleven. Azerbaijan and India follow with nine match points each. Two rounds to go.
