Mike Serovey Loses to Nathalie van der Lende

I played only one Round of the 18th Annual Southern Open and that was a loss to Nathalie van der Lende of Holland. The complete game, with analysis and diagrams, can be found at http://www.mikeseroveyonchess.com/VanDerLende-Sicilian.html. There is a picture of her on that page that is a few years old. Here is a video that shows her near the end of it and you can see what she looks like now. She is the 17 year old girl with the long brown hair.
