Hou Yifan wins it all, making her the youngest champion ever. Crazy man, I'm amazed at the ability of the best of the best again.

You are correct, and so am I 🙂 Hou is the family name, which in Chinese comes first, but in English comes second. Thus endless confusion...

yeah, if people (westerners) would just consistently write asian family names first, there would be no problem. but it's completely random in english texts, and you'll never know for sure unless you actually know the names.
