Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I riro i a Carissa Yip mai i Andover, Massachusetts te taitara i te marama kua hipa, a, ko ia te taiohi rawa atu ki te hinga i tetahi rangatira nui, a Alexander Ivanov, i te New England Open i te 2014. Ko tētahi kōtiro 11 tau te pakeke kua riro hei wahine rangatahi rawa atu o Amerika ki te eke ki te taumata rangatira i roto i te mekemeke. I riro i a Carissa Yip mai i Andover, Massachusetts te taitara i te marama kua hipa, a, ko ia ano te taiohi rawa ki te hinga i tetahi rangatira nui, a Alexander Ivanov, i te New England Open i te tau 2014. Ko te akonga o te akomanga tuaono i te Kura Tuarua o Doherty i kohi i tana waahanga tuatahi o te chess e rima tau ki muri, a, mai i te wa i whakawhiwhia ai ia ki nga whakamoemiti tae atu ki te noho hei tohunga wahine taitamariki i te tau 2013. I te marama o Hui-tanguru, i tohua ia hei kaitakaro 50 wahine pai rawa atu i te whenua e te U.S. Chess Federation (USCF), 36th i waenga i nga kaitakaro i whanau i te U.S., e ai ki te Valley Dispatch. 'Kei te tino koa ahau mo te pakaru i te rekoata,' i kii a Carissa. I mua, i mau a Annie Wang i te taitara hei rangatira wahine taitamariki, nana i pakaru te rekoata tekau tau-roa a Irina Krush i te tau 2014, engari ko Carissa te mea tuatahi i te wha marama, e ai ki a Andover Patch. I ako tuatahi te kotiro taitamariki i te mekemeke i muri i tana papa, a Percy, he kaihoahoa IT i whakaako ia ia tae noa ki tana tiimata ki te patu i a ia i roto i te tau. E rua tau noa iho i mua i whakatakoto ai a Carissa i tētahi whāinga kia eke ki te 2,100 - he tohunga te tangata neke atu i te 2,000, he rangatira te tangata neke atu i te 2,200. Heoi, kei te whai ia ki te eke ki te 2,300 i te mutunga o tenei tau. I te whakataetae i whakawhiwhia ki a ia te taitara hei rangatira i te Hui-tanguru 21 Legends of Chess Tournament i Cambridge i reira ia (Carissa i whakaahuatia i te taha matau) i takaro ki te rangatira taatai, Chris Williams (taha maui). I a ia e whakaaro ana mehemea ka whakataetae ia ki a Williams, i te mutunga ka whakarongo ia ki te tohutohu a tona papa i kii'whakarongo ki to ngakau' I kii a Carissa he pai ki a ia te chess na te mea he taakaro wero, e ai ki te Boston Globe. 'E pai ana ahau ki te tākaro ki te tangata e he tino pai,' ka mea ia. Engari i ētahi wā ka hinga ia i ngā hoariri pakeke ake i a ia, kāore rātou i te mau tonu i te whiu...
