Greek female chess players continue to make history in international championships around the world. This time, it was an 11-year-old girl who has been playing chess since she was 4, Evangelia Siskou, who was crowned world champion at the World School Chess Championships, which was hosted on the island of Rhodes.
She competed in the category of girls up to 13 years old, achieving 7.5 points in 9 matches, i.e. seven wins, one loss, and one draw, in matches where a total of 34 female chess players took part.
A few months ago, in November 2022, she won third place in the World Championship for Girls up to 10 years old.
