An impressive achievement by two-times European Champion Tatiana Kosintseva: she won the FIDE Grand Prix in Nalchik 1,5 points ahead of the nearest competitor! The field included such notable figures as World Vice-Champion Hou Yifan, 2nd highest rated female player in the world Koneru Humpy, ex-World Champion Zhu Chen, reigning European Champion Pia Cramling and others.

53

Her sister, IM Nadezhda Kosintseva, is also keeping up. For her rapid rating increase (she's #5 on the Women's World FIDE rankings now) in 2009 she has received the Caissa award as player of the year.
