Who sees it

Every figure says where it came from. Anything we cannot check is marked as the estimate it is — a sponsorship board that prints both the same way is not worth reading.

The story

Elif is 14 and rated 2180 — third in her age group nationally and one norm from a title. The 2026 season is eleven tournaments, four of them abroad, and the entry fees and flights are what decides whether she plays them. A sponsor gets the shirt, the board card and forty hours of federation broadcast where the camera sits on the board for minutes at a time, which is a longer look than almost anything else at this money.
