Danielian and Ukraine’s Iulija Osmak both had eight points going into the 11th round of fixtures, but Osmak’s second consecutive draw against Georgia's second seed Bela Khotenashvili saw her have to settle for second place with an unbeaten record at the tournament and 8.5 points.

The fifteenth seed Danielian finished on nine points from a possible 11, and was also unbeaten having won seven and drawn four of her matches.

Poland’s Oliwia Kiolbasa, the 43rd seed, finished third after a draw with Ukrainian Nataliya Buksa.

Both players finished on eight points, with Kiolbasa placed higher due to a superior rating average of her opponents throughout the tournament.

Nine players finished the championship on 7.5 points, headed by Armenia’s Anna M. Sargsyan thanks to her win against Slovenia’s Laura Unuk.

Azerbaijan’s Gulnar Mammadova drew with France’s Sophie Milliet as both players finished on 7.5 points.

Milliet was unbeaten in Iasi, but drew seven of her 11 matches.

Khotenashvili and Narva both finished on 7.5 points, and so too did Georgian seventh seed Meri Arabidze after a victory over Romania’s Mihaela Sandu, 16-year-old Russian Leya Garifullina following a draw with fourth seed Gunay Mammadzada of Azerbaijan, Belarus’ Olga Badelka courtesy of beating Bulgaria’s Gergana Peycheva, and France’s Deimante Daulyte-Cornette after a win against Poland’s Monika Socko.
