"Not many female players were present, but WGM Pauline Guichard was there and fought tenaciously in the FIDE Open, finishing on 6/9. A delightfully calm, friendly person, Pauline is a medical doctor by profession, but she manages to fit chess in her working schedule as much as possible, including her representing France in the female squad at the recent Olympiad, where she achieved a notable success having made the greatest number of points for her team (7/10). 2018 will definitely be Pauline’s most successful year, as for the first time in her career she was crowned French Woman Champion, at the French Championship that took place in Nimes soon after the Paris Championship."
