Aug-02-13  whiteshark: Q: What do you consider to be your most important contribution to opening theory?

a: <Maybe this will sound strange but it is the game Muzychuk-Harika from the 2001 World Youth Championship. I was just 11 years old and found a strong novelty over the board on the 23rd move. I was very proud that after that game some top GMs told me that it was a great improvement for White in this line.>

  alexmagnus: Muzychuk was 11, Harika 10 - and they played 22 moves of theory?

  alexmagnus: But what's even more amazing about this story is that GMs actually look at games between two girls of this age.
