Someone knows where I can find the games?
another woman on the world spot:
LORENA OCHOA just won her 1st. Major Championship at the first women’s world championship at the Old and Ancient Golf course os St.Andrews. She’s 25 years old and already a great golf player. I just bought a book on golf and in it there’s this remark: “Golf is like a game of Chess”.
Were these blitz games? What were the time controls?
