Baku/02.08.23/Turan: The World Chess Cup held in Baku attracted international attention with the participation of a chess player of Iranian origin, 26-year-old Sarasadat Khademalsharieh.

Due to the high rating, Sarasadat starts the fight from the second round - 1/32 finals.
Today she is dating Aulia Medina Warda from Indonesia. Indonesian in 1/128 finals defeated filipinka Frayna Janelle Mae 1.5:0.5. ---06B---
