TIL chess is gendered.
Not to distract from the excellent accomplishment there, but still.
It’s both. The next rank up for her is non-gendered.
It has to be, I suppose. This girl is younger than the youngest male grandmaster, so obviously it would be unfair on the men to force them to compete against women.

*girl grandmaster.
Woman Grandmaster is a title. It’s lower ranked than Grandmaster and International Master.

There are women that have the Grandmaster title. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_female_chess_players
Honestly female grandmaster would be the most suitable had the word not become inflammatory. We need to start reclaiming our language.
‘Grandmistress’
Edit: This was supposed to just be a funny sounding non-word, but I seem to have walked straight into the culture wars.
Weirdo
“woman grandmaster” for a 11 year old is not better.
Yeah, see edit above. I just found the idea of the imaginary title funny, obviously I should have explained what I was thinking.
