New Delhi, Sept 06: Women International Master Tania
Sachdev today said her immediate goal was to secure the two
norms which would make her a Woman Grandmaster.
"I am very restless. I got women Grandmasters norm in the
Asian Junior (Under-19C championship last year and two more
such norms will bring me the Women Grandmaster (WGM) title,"
said Tania, who qualified for the world chess championship in
the Asian Women's Championship held at Kozhikode last month.
The 17-year-old, who finished ahead of women GMS Aarthie
Ramaswamy, last year's bronze-medallist Nisha Mohota and Wim
Swati Ghate in the competition, is aware that she needs to
work upon her techniques.
"I am very bad in opening games and have asked my coach
to help me overcome this," said the reigning Asian Junior
Girls Champions told reporters here.
Tania, with ELO 2206 points (ride rating), entered the Limca Book of World Records at the age of eight when she created history by annexing five titles in the British Championship at Norwich, Scotland.
