Poor Hou! She tries very hard and copes well enough with the big boys, who are more careful against her. But she sure came a cropper against Van Wely!! Hou is a female chess machine manufactured in China,but really, no woman on earth comes close to Judith’s chess talent ( in her heyday ). Even now Hou cannot match Judith in Rapid/Blitz play. To be frank, very few men can either.
So is untouchable. No one can defeat him, not even the great Carlsen.
Hou defeated Judit Polgar in a tournament last year and finished better than her. Maybe one of the reasons why she retired eventually. Judit is a great player but motherhood and lack of practice has taken its toll on her playing abilities. I’m sure she can defeat Hou easily during her heyday.
