My fave Chess content creators

Since I missed posting yesterday, a quick list of champion Chess chicks currently popularising the game and helping make it more fun for everyone.

1. Anna Cramling (Spanish-Swedish Woman FIDE Master).

2-3. Alexandra & Andrea Botez (Canadian; Alex is a Woman FIDE Master).

4. Dina Belenkaya (Russian-Israeli Woman Grandmaster).

5. Fiona Steil-Antoni (Luxembourgish Woman International Master).

Easiest way to keep up with the first four is on YouTube, where they regularly share game footage. "Fionchetta" does commentating/interviewing now, so she's better followed on Twitter, where she posts about tourneys and the odd Chess news.

Why am I capitalising Chess? Because, despite not being a proper noun, it's important, damn it! :-)
