Ena Cvitan came out as a winner of the Croatian Women's Championship 2021. It is the first national title in her chess career.
The 9-round Swiss tournament took place from August 21-29, 2021 in Hotel "Slavonija" in Vinkovci.
The 20-year old Cvitan entered the event as the rating favourite and did not disappoint, scoring 7½/9 and became the only undefeated participant. Amarija Radiković was coming into the final round a half-point ahead of the future champion but fell to Kristina Šarić and had to settle for silver.
Ana Berke tied for third place but took bronze thanks to better tiebreaks over Mirjana Medić and Patricija Vujnović.
