11岁华裔女童成全美最年幼女国际象棋大师(组图)
来自美国麻州安多弗市(Andover)的11岁华裔女童叶诗雯(Carissa Yip)近日以2203积分晋级为大师(master)，成为美国国际象棋史上最年轻的女大师棋手，比目前记录保持人，加州华裔王安妮(Annie Wang)年轻了4个月。
美国国际象棋联合会(U.S. Chess Federation，USCF)本月5号在官网上宣布了上述消息，叶诗雯现年11岁5个月。在安多弗市Doherty中学就读6年纪，早在2013年，叶诗雯就已经成为了美国历史上最年轻的专家级棋手，在2014年的新英格兰国际象棋公开赛中，她击败了美国象棋大师伊凡诺夫(Alexander Ivanov)，累积了2203分，获确认为大师级地位。
美国最年轻大师级女棋手的纪录本来由另一名12岁的华裔女童王安妮持有，但叶诗雯比她年轻了四个月，刷新了纪录。王安妮之前的记录保持者是现任美国女子冠军艾莉娜。克拉许(Irina Krush)，她在12岁时成为美国史上最年轻女大师。
克拉许的记录保持了10年才被打破。根据美国国际象棋联合会公布的排行榜，在美国出生的棋手中，叶诗雯现在的排名为第36，是美国国际象棋联合会最优秀的百分之一点五会员之一。
叶诗雯说：“我非常高兴能打破记录。，这感觉太棒了！” 叶诗雯已经定下了新的目标，在今年内要向2300分迈进。叶诗雯6岁开始学国际象棋，她的启蒙老师是她的父亲。父亲很早就预言，叶诗雯很快就能从专家成为大师。
根据美国国际象棋联合会的级别规定，积分在2000以上就是专家级棋手，超过2200分就是大师等级。
叶诗雯表示，她喜欢下棋是因为有挑战性，她说：“我喜欢和水平高的人下棋。”不过有时候她打败比自己年龄大的对手是，他们不一定都能欣然接受失败。她说在自己参加的第一次比赛中，7岁的她打败了对手，对手大发脾气，说自己不喜欢和小孩子下棋。除了下棋，与其他女孩一样，叶诗雯有多种其他的爱好。她喜欢游泳、打高尔夫球及弹钢琴。虽然叶诗雯很爱象棋，但是以后也打算成为一名职业高尔夫球手和女警察。
Girl, 11, is America's youngest female chess master and has plans to become world champion player

Carissa Yip from Andover, Massachusetts earned the title last month and became the youngest to ever to defeat a grandmaster, Alexander Ivanov, during the New England Open in 2014
An 11-year-old girl has become the youngest U.S. female to reach master level in chess.
Carissa Yip from Andover, Massachusetts earned the title last month and also became the youngest to ever to defeat a grandmaster, Alexander Ivanov, during the New England Open in 2014.
The sixth-grade student at Doherty Middle School picked up her first piece of chess five years ago, and since has been raking in accolades including becoming the youngest female expert in 2013.
And in February, she was ranked the 50th best female chess player in the country by the U.S. Chess Federation (USCF), 36th among U.S. born players, according to the Valley Dispatch.
'I'm really happy about breaking the record,' said Carissa.
Previously, Annie Wang held the title as the youngest female master, who broke Irina Krush's decade-long record in 2014, but Carissa has secured the top spot by four months, according to Andover Patch.
The young girl first learned chess after her father, Percy, an IT architect taught her until she began beating him within a year.
And it was only two years ago when Carissa had set a goal of reaching a rating of 2,100 - an expert is anyone over 2,000 and a master is anyone over 2,200.
However, now she is aiming to reach 2,300 later this year.
In the tournament that gave her the title as master during the February 21 Legends of Chess Tournament in Cambridge where she (Carissa pictured right) played against chess master, Chris Williams (left). While she was debating whether to even compete against Williams, in the end she listened to the advice from her father who said 'listen to your heart'
Carissa said she loves chess because it is a challenging game, according to the Boston Globe.
'I prefer to play with someone who's actually good,' she said.
But sometimes when she defeats opponents older than her, they do not always take the loss in stride.
Carissa said during one of her first tournaments, she beat a competitor at seven years old, who threw a tamper and said he did not like playing against kids.
As she strives towards her ultimate goal of becoming a world champion chess player, last month, she finished with a national rating of 2,203 which placed her with the best 1.5 per cent of all players in the USCF.
Magnus Carlsen, 24, of Norway has a rating of 2,863 and is the highest-ranked chess player in the world, according to the World Chess Federation.
In order to secure the title as grandmaster, she would have to have a rating of 2,500 on the international scale as well as having top results, which with her history is certainly attainable.

Her success in tournaments are due to the fact that she keeps her focus two to ten moves ahead of her opponent, as well as her ability to improvise - she can quickly adapt, finding a way to win.

She said: 'After two wins, I was very tired, and planned to withdraw after two games as I normally do. However, I wasn’t sure this time. I knew that I would become a master if I could win this game. I would get more than 40 rating points.
'But I never beat Chris before. He is a very strong master. I talked to my dad, and my dad told me not to think too much about ratings. He told me to listen to my heart.'
This month, the USCF announced that Carissa was a record-breaker along with a chess master.
While she loves chess, Carissa has plans to also become a professional golfer and a policewoman.
