T.D. Posted January 16, 2008 Report Posted January 16, 2008 I wonder if Tammy Thomas, the track cyclist who was banned from the sport for life (steroids) plays chess? [it's a real photo, no joke...] Quote
Noj Posted January 16, 2008 Report Posted January 16, 2008 That's scary. She looks like Gary Sinise. Quote
T.D. Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) Judit Polgar: the great and beautiful queen of chess! Yesterday, Judit won an exciting game vs. Gelfand in the fourth round of the Wijk aan Zee supertournament. Sac'd a bunch of material (first a pawn and then a knight), and Gelfand, in time pressure, couldn't keep track of the complications. Interestingly, Polgar has a very fierce attacking style of play, which you might not expect from the only woman playing at the highest level... Edited January 17, 2008 by T.D. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 She can stay away from my razor! Quote
T.D. Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 Her excuse for testing positive for steroids was a claimed false positive caused by birth control pills. As you can imagine, that provoked a certain amount of head-scratching and laughter. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 Does she play the harpsichord? Quote

tonym Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 WIM Lorena Zepeda, rated 2161, from El Salvador We've seen pictures of this lovely lady before. Surely that's majorly distracting during a match? Quote
