She will play against adults. She will fight for the points, that will allow her to become the youngest Grand Master in the history of chess,” Amirov said. Singapore Tournament will start on December 25. Zhansaya departed for Singapore on December 19, to have some practice with Zurab Azmaiparashvili, a Georgian Grandmaster forehand.

And Zhansaya will turn 12 only in January,” Amirov said. Earlier Tengrinews.kz reported that Abdumalik gained a gold medal in Brazil Championship. She won eight games out of nine in her age group.
