Irina Bulmaga looks back on the “Battle of the Sexes” match in Gibraltar

The “Battle of the Sexes” was a ten-round Scheveningen match between ten male and ten female players that was played from 24 January to 3rd February in Gibraltar. The men won 53-47, and looking back on the match, Irina Bulmaga (pictured), who commentated the games live in Gibraltar, wonders if and why the men were better at team-building and what this match says about women’s chess. | Photo: David Llada
