FIDE Candidate Master Thuso Mosutha is a 27 year old chess
sensation who hails from the sleepy village of Sebina.
He is one of the few Motswana players to ever obtain the prestigious
Candidate Master (CM) title from the World Chess Federation as
recognition for his consistent excellence in the game of chess.
During the years, he broke multiple records.
He has grown to be one of the most experienced and strongest
chess players in the country, despite his age which is considered
young in chess.
