| | Polgar is designated as a Grand Master, and is described as "easily the strongest female player in the history of the game." | | | Polgar has achieved her success by abstaining from participating in tournaments where there is a sex based separation. | | | What they mean to say is that she is the "strongest known female player in the history of the game." Obviously, history is the very long story of women being denied all opportunity to get into such games, or compete with men for anything other than toilet-cleaning and diaper-changing titles. |

| | World's best woman player Judit Polgar of Hungary gave an amazing display of her attacking prowess against the former Russian world champion to take the sole lead on 3 points. | | | This was the first time that she scored over the legendry figure in Classical chess and the fact that it came with black pieces, made the win particularly sweet. | | | Russian duo of Braingames match winner Vladimir Kramnik and Evegeny Bareev, Spaniard Alexei Shirov and Anand remained on the heels of the leader half a point behind while as many as five players including Karpov were tied with a fifty per cent score at fifth place. |
