Here's a young lady with the heart of a lion. Chess Grandmaster Anna Muzychuk refuses to play in Saudi Arabia and says, "In a few days, I'll lose 2 world titles, one after another. Because I decided not to go to Saudi Arabia. I refuse to play by special rules, wear an abaya, or be accompanied by a man so I can get out of the hotel, so I don't feel like a second-class person. I will follow my principles and not compete in the fast chess and blitz world championships, where in just 5 days I could have made more money than with dozens of other combined tournaments. This is all very unpleasant but the sad part is that no one seems to care. Bitter feelings, but I can't go back." Oh, you better believe we care. @AmyMek, if you're reading this, @annamuzychuk90 has 2,761 followers. Let's make her famous, because in my book, she is a champion both on and off the board.
