These pictures 🐬were taken 📷at Hawaii just a few hours after I wrote (a piece of) chess history by finishing in a tie for first place 🏆with Boris Gulko and becoming the first woman to win the US Open.🇺🇸✌️That was exactly 23 years ago to this day. ❤️☺️

Another photo of Evgeny Sveshnikov (1950-2021) from Wijk aan Zee, January 1981.
