Hungary's Prime Minister Peter Magyar has proposed chess grandmaster Judit Polgar for president, a position that will become vacant following last week's constitutional amendment that removed the current president from office. "Our country needs unity, peace and a president of whom all Hungarians can be proud," Magyar said in a Facebook post, adding that he will meet with Polgar on Monday to ask her if she would be willing to serve. Polgar, who will turn 50 in a few days, is considered as the greatest woman chess player of all time and was the top-ranked woman player for 25 years when she retired in 2014. Polgar and her two sisters – Zsuzsa (Susan) and Zsofia (Sofia) – along with Ildiko Madl won the 1988 Chess Olympiad for Hungary's women's ​team, ending Soviet dominance. Judit Polgar played in tournaments against men and ​became one of the top players in a male-dominated ​sport. She is the only woman to ​have crossed the 2700-rating threshold that many consider the “Super GM” distinction. Hungarian lawmakers last week passed an amendment that removed current President Tamas Sulyok, an ally of former prime minister Viktor Orban whom Magyar swept from power during elections this year.
