Today the legendary Georgian grandmaster Maia Chiburdanidze celebrates her 59th birthday. Our best wishes!

Chiburdanidze won the women's world championship title at the age of 17 by beating Nona Gaprindashvili in 1978 and held it for 13 years until 1991.

Women's no. 1 Hou Yifan is now in Vladivostok to commentate on the Women's World Championship match alongside Nigel Short!

After the World Chess Champ (blitz) event ended, Firouzja was busy playing blitz with Hikaru Nakamura. Many people have gathered just to enjoy this friendly game. Some of them forgot about the speaker ... at the end of the event (awards session, medals, etc.) because they were focused on the board.

Goryachkina takes the lead for the 1st time in the Women's World Championship match with just 4 games to go!
