“I had rather be the first in this village than second in Rome.”
—Attributed to Julius Caesar by Plutarch, Life of Caesar.
Aqui fica um resumo do estudo elaborado para a FIDE por Peter Zhdanov:
-
Not a single female player is #1 in her country overall. The relative best results belong to: GM Judit Polgar (2709, #3 in Hungary), GM Anna Muzychuk (2583, #3 in Slovenia), GM Zhu Chen (2490, #3 in Qatar), IM Batkhuyag Munguntuul (2451, #3 in Mongolia).
-
27/141 (19.1%) chess federations don’t have any female FIDE-rated players.
-
15/141 (10.6%) federations have a female player who belongs to the top-10 of all players in the country. In other words, only in 10.6% of the chess federations a woman has a tangible chance to play for the main national team. Of course, this is a very optimistic estimate, because only 5 players actually make it to representing the country.
-
47/141(33.3%) federations have a female player rated from #11 to #50 in the country.
-
32/141(22.7%) federations have a female player rated from #51 to #100 in the country.
-
19/141 (13.5%) federations have a female player rated from #101 to #349 (Chile) in the country.
-
1/141 (0.7%): at the time of this writing (March 9th, 2012) no data was available on the ratings of Botswana’s players.
