The Minister of Youth and Sports Ihor Oleksandrovych Zhdanov about the Women’s World Chess Championship match with the participation of Ukrainian Mariya Muzychuk
For me it’s also a question of honour. I sincerely want the match take place here, because I know that this will benefit Ukraine. When we discussed applying for the Women’s World Chess Championship match, the parents of Mariya Muzychuk asked me to assist her. She needed a personal chess coach to study and play with. I talked with one of the deputies, a non-poor person who is also a fan of our sport. He promised to help me financing her individual preparation. Now it’s true that chess is a sport – in each tournament you can lose 5–7 kg – but a sports training is not sufficient: a chess training is also needed. |
