Anna Rudolf (born November 12, 1987 in Miskolc, Hungary) is a Hungarian chess player. In 2008, 2010 and 2011 she won the Hungarian Women Chess Championship.[1]
Lip balm controversy
Rudolf attracted attention during the Vandoeuvre Open in December 2007, where she defeated the top seed Christian Bauer, finished ninth and scored WGM and IM norms.[2] Following her good results in the initial rounds of the tournament, three players — Oleg Krivonosov, Vladimir Lazarev and Ilmārs Starostīts — accused her of cheating, saying that a "secret internet connection was transmitting the best moves with the help of Anna's lip balm."[3] In the final round Rudolf had to play Starostīts who refused to shake hands with her.[3] After the tournament, the Hungarian Chess Federation protested against the "unethical behavior" of the three accusers and asked the FIDE Ethics Commission to examine the case.[4]
