Tina when do you think Xie got her male GM title. Xie Jun won the world womens
championship in sept/oct 1991 in her match with Maya Chiburdanidze. Xie got the
male GM title at that time.
On the July 1991 FIDE rating list only 3 women had the male GM title. They were
Nona Gaprindashvili, Maya Chiburdanidze and Susan Polgar.
