Her father Suhas Tarihalkar, who studied in Belagavi, settled down in the United Kingdom
Shrisha Suhas Tarihalkar, a native of Belagavi, claimed victory in the British U10 Girls’ Chess Championship. Her father, Suhas Tarihalkar, a Belagavi resident who studied in the city, later settled in the United Kingdom. At the U10 level, Tarihalkar staged an impressive comeback, having scored just one point in her first three rounds.
She then demonstrated remarkable determination, securing three wins in her subsequent four games and drawing the remaining one, culminating in a commendable score of 4.5/7. Tarihalkar shared the British U10 Girls’ Chess Champion title with Mary Cawdery. This accomplishment makes her the latest member of the Commonwealth Chess Association (CCA) to secure a British chess title, joining the ranks of Elis.
