Jan-11-05 | | percyblakeney: The 11th woman with the GM title, after Nona Gaprindashvili, Maia Chiburdanidze, Judit Polgar, Xie Jun, Zsuzsa Polgar, Pia Cramling, Zhu Chen, Antoaneta Stefanova, Humpy Koneru and Alexandra Kosteniuk. |

Jul-04-05 | | Caissanist: Ordinarily you have to achieve a minimum rating of 2500 to gain the GM title, but her all time high appears to be in the mid 2400s. Does anyone know how she managed to get the title? |

 | | lostemperor: She got her title by becoming shared first in the European championship 2004 and thereby scoring 2600+ performance rating. But still it is exceptional to get the title by just one fine tournament result because of a new regulation. She is from China but is Dutch now and live in the Netherlands. a few years ago when a Dutch team needed a player I contacted her in Holland and arranged her to play there. |

Jul-04-05 | | Montreal1666: What is the link that explains are new
regulations for becoming a GM and WGM? |
|
Jul-04-05 | | jamesmaskell: Women can become a male title holders...is it possible for men to do the opposite? I'd rather like to have a women's title. That would be a funny ice breaker! |
|
Jul-30-05 | | OJC: GM Zhaoqin Peng had a disappointing day. She lost to
Betul Cemre Yildiz (rated 2155) in the european team championships. I don't think her performace rating will be 2600+ this year. |

Very nice pictures in there..
If you scroll almost to the bottom there is a picture of <Arlette van Weersel>.. The resemblance to a famous A-list actress is irry.. |

Jul-17-14 | | Caissanist: I updated the bio to mention that her string of Dutch Women's Championships ended several years ago. She seems to be jinxed in that event now; although she is still by far the highest rated woman in the Netherlands, she has come up short three years in a row in the championship. |
