Exactly one year ago, Robert Ris released an Underdog episode titled: 9-Year-Old Girl Defeats WIM Mariam Mkyrtchyan.
Now, that same girl—Bodhana Sivanandan—is 10 years old, and once again finds herself the underdog, this time facing none other than GM Mariya Muzychuk! It appears that opponents whose names include the letters “MKYC” and “H” tend to inspire brilliancies from Bodhana. The young English prodigy is clearly on a mission to make sure that by 2026, no one will dare call her an underdog any more.
