It was a huge honor to challenge WGM Jennifer Yu in a bullet match as part of my weekly Saturday charity series! With many tournaments and school clubs on hiatus to reduce the spread of COVID-19, this match benefited online educational opportunities for US Chess members and followers, such as Zoom seminars and masterclass streams led by male and female professionals and coaches. Thank you to everyone who donated 🙂
