Meet the Russian Chess Queens!


According to John Saunders, Nadezhda Kosintseva (R) yesterday completed her requirement at Gibraltar for the GM title. Her sister Tatiana Kosintseva (L) is already a GM. They are now the second pair of sisters in history to earn the GM title. They are also the two top ranked female players in Russia, and by quite a big margin.

Congratulations to Nadezhda!
