Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
I hope she’ll continue for years to come.
How old is she?
She is 45. Not old at all, come to think of it, but in professional chess even much younger people are considered ‘old’ for some reason. And she is currently World’s #7, not bad.
Go Maia Go!!!!!!
I would love to see her end up First Place!

Yeah, like Viktor Korchnoi, he’s 75 years old and he’s #134 in the world. That only makes him, oh, about 300,000 places above the rest of us.
” And she is currently World’s #7, not bad. “
