September 19, 2007 By News Desk National champion Tania Sachdev claimed the biggest title of her career when she beat a strong field in the Asian women’s chess championship at Teheran, reports The Hindu. The splendid performance also helped her qualify for the World Cup for the first time.
“This sure is the biggest triumph of my career. The field was very tough with the Chinese and the Vietnamese girls threatening to fill the top three places. Since I had not done so well in the Asian Zonals (in Dhaka last month), I was keen to make amends,” was her candid remark.
