Meet Carissa Yip: 12-year old Chess Prodigy, US Youngest Female Master 

At just 12 years of age, Carissa Yip has quickly become one of the US top female chess players. Known for her creativity over the board, Yip has been on a record-shattering pace ever since she learned how to play chess from her father at age 6. Three years later, at age 9, she became the youngest ever to reach the title of Expert.
