It's the first time 15-year-old Layla Timergazi has beaten IM Russell Dive in a standard length game, and she does it with considerable panache. Well done Layla!
Not surprisingly, she was smiling from ear to ear when she came out of the club room.

I simply have to share this game.

A really great win by Layla. I had noticed the variation given to Layla's 15th move and thought that not taking on f6 was a serious let off for Russell. Also the note 16... seemed like he had serious counter-play, but Layla had better control there than I observed at the time. 19.g4 is stunning.
