Hi everyone, 
 


WIM Vesna Rozic, 26, two-time Slovenian Women's Chess Champion is no more. She lost her battle to cancer, as reported by the Slovenia chess federation website. Our deepest condolence to her relatives, friends and loved ones.

WIM Vesna Rozic (2260) has played in four European Championships and four Chess Olympiads. She was forced to cancel her participation in the European Women's Championships a few weeks back because of the illness.

    I am very saddened by this news, because a few days ago I just read about her condition and now she's gone. She's too young.
