Chinese are the best. They sent their weakest team ever: 1 WGM (weak), 1 non-titled player (!!) and one WFM (very weak), only to win the silver!!! Unexplainable!
Watch that little Chinese gril, Hou Yifan, only 12 years old. She played all 13 rounds, scored 11, unbelievable! Among 4 Chinese women players, only Board 1 Zhao Xue had played Olympiad before. She is 21 years old, had highest performance score in this Olympiad. No wonder, all Chinese women world champions and GMs Xie Jue, Xu Yuhau & Zhu Chen can retire and enjoy their life now if they chose to.
Susan, what do you need to organize a “Children’s Olympiad” in NYC?
Khanti Mansiyk, Russia, won the hotly contested bid to host the Chess Olympiad 2010. The Siberian northern region of Ugra, well known to participants of last year’s World Cup won over four other cities: Riga (Latvia), Poznan (Poland), Budva (Serbia and Montenegro) and Buenos Aires (Argentina).
See you all in Siberia!!
“She played all 13 rounds, scored 11, unbelievable!”
You’re so right, unbelievable!!
On http://www.allthingshuman the webmaster describes how he spent a good deal of time trying to sell to US newspapers and media types that the US team had beaten the Russian juggernaut. There was TOTAL disinterest.
Hey,
Anyone heard about the blossoming romance between Alexander Morozevich and Austalia’s women player Arianne Caoili?
Heard that Morozevich punched Aronian Levon ‘coz Aronian was dancing with Caoli during the Olympiad in Torino.
News from the Australian blog page:
“I notice that Arianne Caoili, who was not playing yesterday, is on board 2 today. She’s created quite a stir outside the Olympiad Hall by encouraging a competition of another kind amongst some top male players by playing one against the other. I don’t listen to rumours much but it seems that no less than Aronian was punched by a rival while dancing with Arianne.
Amiel I’m afraid that Alexander Morozevich has given up wearing his wind cheater jacket, as it’s now too hot for it. I have it on good authority that yes the emblem on the blazer is Australian. Apparently he visited Australia. No, I don’t know but probably yes, Arianne may have something to do with that too. She’s half Filipino I heard, so it’s all your fault. Hot blood.”

“Anyone heard about the blossoming romance between Alexander Morozevich and Austalia’s women player Arianne Caoili?”
No, but isn;t it true that more than 50% of chess players/organizers/arbiters/journalists marry each other? It’s only normal. Caoili is a nice girl, should get married and have children. There are too many WIM/WGMs too addicted to chess that they forget to have a family.

Any WIM/WGM (over 18 only) list of unmarried/single/beautiful chess players/arbiters/journalists?
