Humpy youngest female grandmaster
Koneru Humpy Humpy is also the first Indian woman to achieve the men's GM
title. "The presidential board meeting of FIDE, which met on September 8 in
the Kremlin, Moscow, found her claim for the title as genuine and conferred the
GM norm on her," says FIDE vice-president P T Ummer Koya. The governing
body had examined the ratings and category of the tournaments she played to log
the required three GM norms to get the men's Grand Master and found that they
were right and genuine, Koya said. Humpy will take part in the the Second World
Chess Cup planned for October in India.
