Aleksandra Goryachkina
Aleksandra Goryachkina, born on September 28, 1998, with a peak rating of 2611, is known for her positional and strategic mastery. Her deep understanding of chess fundamentals and ability to outmaneuver opponents in complex positions make her a formidable player. A highlight of her career was winning the 2019 Women's Candidates Tournament, which earned her the right to challenge Ju Wenjun for the Women’s World Chess Championship.
