International Master Nurgyull Salimova 


"Now I am so in love with chess, it's one of the most important things in my life. I work every day and I am really motivated to achieve more and get better."

She was just 4, it was the spring of 2007, when her father being a chess player showed her chess pieces for the first time.
Then they started talking about it everyday.


In 2008, she played her first tournament, all her opponents were elder/senior to her but she came first. That's when she thought about continuing her chess.


Chess has taught her to be disciplined, focused and responsible.
She gets to travel around the world and see interesting things.

She is just 16 and she is already a Woman Grand Master and n International Master.
She has achieved many feats, few of them being U-12 World champion, European youth champion, she is even eligible to play the Women's world cup.
She is amongst the most promising women players in the years to come.
