Only nine chess femmes entered this event from an entire continent! My hope is that as this event matures more chess femmes will enter each year. I note three chess femmes entered from Ecuador. One of my nephews is married to a beautiful young lady, Osayo, from Ecuador; most of her immediate family lives there.
