043 Born in Romania. Daughter of two International Masters. The young chess star, WGM Sabina Foisor, moved to America as a young adult and conquered the women’s chess scene by winning the 2017 US Women’s Championship.

In this episode, we discuss:

What it’s like growing up in a chess family with high expectations for success.
The emotional journey of preparing & competing for the 2017 US Women’s Championship while her mother became seriously ill.
Improvement questions on pawn structures, the “right time” to trade queens, and creating an opening repertoire that excites you.
The surprising career Sabina would’ve attempted if not for chess.
