And another one. She looks really serious. Chess is a brutal game. No room for weakies!

Here's another picture of her.

Hey Swede, Is that really true? I knew there were rumors to that effect, but it seemed that they were denied. The rumors claimed that Gourmally had been sent back home owing to the fact the rest of the Armenian team wanted a piece of him! Can you imagine Levon Aronian doing a salsa?

Germany's top board, Elizabeth Paetz. Though young, she's a very experienced player. Rated around 2420 or so.

Top board from Georgia. She's a tough player.
