You dudes who nitpick at this fabulous woman chess player fit the stereotype of chess nerds. Lighten up. She's great. World class chess is a great spectacle. There's too much to enjoy about it without looking to complain about trivialities.
What a brilliant person. She's incredibly inspiring

Her intellectual energy is electric
Hou is a well-rounded person who is living her best life.
I’m so happy she speaks English because so much more of the world can learn from her than just Mandarin speakers. I love her so much and she’s such an inspiration to me. She’s my favorite player period. I love how aggressive and creative she is as well as being extremely intelligent.
She is beautiful, very smart as well.
So proud to be in the same high school and same college with Yifan
I am going to continue lobby for Hu Yifan. Every video she is in I will hit the like button. No matter how terrible the video is.

She became a gm in 2009 at the age of only 14 years. She dominated women chess, while simultaneously scoring really well in her academics and getting into the best college in china in 2012, while also hitting the 2600 rating. Imagine becoming the women world champion while preparing to write exams. She then went to do masters in Oxford under the Rhodes scholarship. Man I imagine how things would have looked if yifan had fully concentrated on chess but ig somethings are best left unanswered 😌.
Hou is my new muse for my own play at this wonderful game. Love watching her matches. You never know how she will respond to an attack and if you are not careful the attack is reversed. Such a skilful player!
Great person and champion
Hou Yifan plays chess better then me.

love her
very interesting
Superb.....Miss Tania and Hou Yifan
EFan just has good command of English this improves her confident.
I wish chess would not use the category of men and women and men competing women and just refer to individual as chess players. That would be much an healthier way to talk chess.
who is her teacher i see some game of her( game that she defeat a 2700 - top 1 gm in vn) she only defend and wait to opponent miss caculate many 2700+ gm think she is weak and attack like crazt and when they use the army come so high she attack on their king( with no prortector)
Any one notice that that other lady is competing with HU Yifan. Who you think won?

Yeah Focus on other things except chess it will show in your result. But If you are already satisfied with your result and want to go to other field You can do it. But Top chess Players can't be part time chess player Nowadays.
Thats why magnus give her 10 for her sanity
Whose here after watching The Queen's Gambit.
That's the key. It *is* the whole life of top players, look at Caruana who studies chess 14 hours a day for example. Women don't do that.

Makes sense. There aren't a lot of women at her level, so I imagine it would be an inspiration for women chess fans. And some guys are afraid of losing to a girl. It is what it is. Men are inspired by Magnus, but I don't think there are enough women to care to be afraid of playing him.

chess is man-dominated and women who play chess are more often looked down upon, so this does make sense.

Tanya is an IM. Try again.
Let's not forget her childish tantrum by throwing a game in 5 moves because she was upset at the pairings. She complained mostly about being paired with women YET she only finished 48th out of 150 and Ju Wenjun (a woman) kicked her ass with a nice queen move in rd. 8.
@jilow

If they really did stack the pairing so that women would face mostly women, or hoping to get her to the finals by giving her an easy road. Whatever their intention was, if they stacked it at all, it's an insult to women's chess. If she's going to an open tournament it should just all be random.

I hear they stack it a lot, well, at least that's how it turns out, like, the top players mostly have white, and the lesser players end up with black. 'Man, the truth hurts.' - Ben Finegold. I agree. If they forced her to play with only women to make it easier, that's not the equality she wants. But, I don't know enough about this to truly know all actions of both sides and their reasonings (and I assume you don't know enough, either, but maybe you do).

What the hell are you guys on about. The pairings are made by a computer software. It's a coincidence that she ended up being paired against 8 women.
