00:00Chess was a male-dominated sport.
00:06Women were not allowed to play in male tournaments.
00:11There is the pure mental ability needed to understand chess,
00:16and there is the personality required to become good at the game.
00:19Women don't have either of these sides.
00:21Twelve-year-old Hungarian schoolgirl Judith Polgar
00:24has won a major international chess tournament and made history.
00:28In the beginning, everybody underestimated me.
00:32Oh, they're terrible chess players.
00:39Laszlo Polgar, together with his wife Clara,
00:42decided that they were going to be raising geniuses with this experiment.
00:47When I was five years old, I started my chess training.
00:51This twelve-year-old girl with the open ponytail,
00:54and she is just dominating.
00:56I was a killer, attacker.
00:58She was a top player, but still a female player.
01:02In 1994, Judith Polgar was going to play Gary Kasparov.
01:05You have the feeling that he wants to eat you up alive.
01:08Just a psychological warfare.
01:10The toughest kind of competition in purest form.
01:13The first time we had a world champion
01:16facing against the world's best female player.
01:19Is she going to be killed?
01:22Let's go!
01:27Playing Gasparov like playing Larry Bird or Michael Jordan.
01:31I was dreaming to win against Gary Kasparov.
01:34We played several games against each other.
01:36We played several games against each other.
01:37She was going blow for blow with the greatest chess player of all time.
01:41This is a dogfight.
