She won the Olympics twice with the team, in 1988 in Thessaloniki and 1990 in Novi Sad and twice she received an individual bronze medal ( 1986 in Dubai for her result of 10.5 points from 14 games on the second board and in 2008 in Dresden for her result of 8 out of 11 on the third board).

The Hungarian victory in 1988, together with the three Polgár sisters ( Judit , Zsuzsa and Zsófia ), was something special, as the Soviet Union could not win for the first time (except in 1976 - the USSR did not take part in this tournament for political reasons) . For Ildikó Mádl, this Chess Olympiad was overshadowed by the fact that her boyfriend at the time Béla Perényi had a car accident a few weeks earlier on the way from Budapest to the Olympics. During previous Chess Olympiads she was trained by IM Tibor Károlyi Jr.

In her six participations in European team championships for women (1992, 1999, 2001 and 2005 on the top board, 2007 on the third board , 2011 on the second board), her greatest individual success was the bronze medal at the European championships in Batumi in 1999 for her result of 6.5 9. Your personal overall balance shows 25.5 points from 45 games (14 wins, 23 draws, 8 defeats).

Position after 20. h4 – h5

Template: checkerboard / maintenance / new

In a game against the Swiss FIDE champion Daniel Summermatter, Ildikó Mádl managed a remarkable attack on the king with the white pieces . A Sicilian defense developed into a sharp game with heterogeneous castling , in which Mádl had already shaken Black's king position on move 14 with a bishop sacrifice on g7 and gained an ongoing initiative .

In the position in the diagram the Hungarian had just asked the knight on g6 with 20. h4 – h5 , who could only evade after f8 because of the checkmate on h7. Then, for example, 21. Rd1 – g1 would win with a threatened exchange on g8 and Qh6 – g7. But Summermatter played 20.… Qd8 – f8 , in the hope of being able to swap queens by returning the extra piece. But now Mádl revealed the side effect of the pawn move with a queen sacrifice : After 21. Qh6xh7 +! after the forced Kh8xh7 with h5xg6 the h-file opens with double check and mate . Summermatter therefore gave up the game.
