I'm eliminated from my first French Championship but life is good, as my best friend came to see me before going back to Barcelona. Matoche is a FM, she works at Chessable and more importantly she is the kindest, cutest, sweetest and nicest human being.

I won another sacrificial game despite having the opposing style. Repeating moves would have been enough to qualify, but one move forces resignation. Can you spot it?

THE TIME SCRAMBLE OF HER LIFE! Nurgyul Salimova sacrifices THE ROOOOOOOK with seconds left (!!) for mate-in-three to beat former World Rapid Champion Anna Muzychuk (!!) and put her on the brink of the Candidates! 🤯 https://t.co/xGvwrZLeqH

Anna Muzychuk could have taken a decent advantage by trapping her bishop on h2 again like in Game 1, but she didn't want to do that again! 😱 https://t.co/xGvwrZLeqH

In response to concerns about FIDE's recently announced new regulations about transgender chess players, we want to make sure US Chess members are familiar with our transgender policy that we introduced in 2018. This applies to all US Chess events. https://t.co/apUPkIyqQQ
