Judit Polgár, the chess player, had a wonderful conversation with the actress of Queen’s Gambit- VIDEO

If you’ve seen Netflix’s miniseries called Queen’s Gambit, you are sure to be interested in the video now. The fabulous Anya Taylor-Joy talked to the Hungarian Chess player, Judit Polgár in a video.

The Queen’s Gambit series is also fascinating and instructive for those unfamiliar with the mysteries of chess. However, Judit Polgár also experienced in reality how it feels to win the first adult tournament of her life at the age of six. During the conversation, the chess player also recalled that, at first, many people were sceptic about her talent. It was challenging to be recognised against man as well.

A few years ago, glamour.hu conducted an interview with Judit Polgár about women’s equal opportunities and how she managed to prevail in this masculine field.

“Ever since I was born, it was all about chess. The apartment was not full of games. When I started playing chess, my sister, Zsuzsa, was twelve or thirteen years old and had accumulated success. Zsófi, my other sister also competed well, she is only a year and a half older than me. It was natural for me to join, I didn’t have much toy doll,”

– said Judit Polgár. Her mom took care of the household. Her father was their manager. The parents were educators, parents and coaches at the same time. The family was together all day; they travelled a lot. There were some conflicts because of race starts, but there is nothing to complain about. Judit became the best among the women’s world rankings at the age of 12 and then led for 26 years. She and her sisters won the women’s chess Olympics. She was among the top 10 players among men’s world rankings as well. It was hard because many thought that women could not play chess at that time. Bobby Fischer, when he was at the top, said he could give any woman a knight advantage, he would still win.
