Iranian chess player Sarasadat Khademalsharieh says that she is happy with her performance at the FIDE Women’s Grand Prix series 2015/16.

Khademalsharieh finished in fourth place at the competition held in Khanty-Mansiysk in Russia.
 
“I am satisfied with my performance in the competition because I think I’ve reduced my distance with the world’s top chess players. As you know the tournament had brought the top chess players together,” Khademalsharieh told Tehran Times in an exclusive interview.

“I have Women’s World Championship ahead of me. However, the competition’s format is different. The Women’s World Championship is a 64-player knockout tournament but I will do my best in the competition in Tehran,” she added.
