In the course of her play she continuously developed her love and passion for the game and increased her knowledge and skills at every level of play. 

While in her early teens her ranking with the FIDE (World Chess Federation) allowed Susan to compete with the men . At the young age of 15 she played against then world champion Anotoli Karpov and in 1991 because of her dominance on the chess board she became the first woman to receive the men's rating of Grandmaster, awarded by FIDE.  

Over the past millineum competitive chess has been dominated by the male of the species. Our first lady of chess, GrandMaster Susan Polgar did rise up through the ranks of competitve chess and broke through this barrier.
