Page "Judit Polgár" Paragraph 66

Concentrating on her two children left Polgár with little time to train and play competitively and her ranking dropped from eighth in 2005 to the mid-50s in 2009.

However, as of September 2010 Polgár remained the only woman in the top 100 and still the only woman to have ever made the top 10.

Comparing motherhood to playing chess, Polgár has said that a chess tournament now " feels like a vacation.

" When asked why she came back to chess after taking time off to care for her children, she said " I cannot live without chess!

It is an integral part of my life.

I enjoy the game!
