This post is a shout-out to Andrey Gutov’s former student Tatiana Kosheparova. Since she began to train systematically she became Fide Master at 15 years old. December 1, 2016 she achieved her highest FIDE rating of 2172. Unfortunately, because of her studies Tatiana stopped playing chess, however she left a bright mark due to her numerous victories in regional tournaments and a multitude of beautiful games.
The first photo shows 12th world champion Anatoly Karpov giving Tatiana a diploma for her accomplishments in chess. The last photo shows Tatiana beating European champion among girls Anastasia Zotova in a very strong match. Let’s wish Tatiana success with her studies and everything else she pursues.
