![]() Alisa has methodically played through the entire field without losing a game. She came in as one of the underdogs (3rd lowest rating) but has proven that she is a force to recoken with. Should she score the IM norm she will also pick up around 48 FIDE rating points! Fantastic for the first time playing in an event such as this.
