At Board 1 this round, it's third-seed Komol Panyasophonlert (THA) vs. Carol Parker (ZAF). It looked like a frustrating game for both: they each had two bingoes (Komol UNITIES SUNTANS to Carol's RETAKES AERIEST), but in between Carol had only one high-scoring non-bingo play (and had to exchange once), while Komol's highest non-bingo was CURLEW (28), with the rest being dumps from ugly racks.
