Yes, it is. 'The Queen's Gambit' is set in the world of chess which is very much real. The character of Beth Harmon was created to represent the experiences of many in the chess world. There were real - life situations like the intense competition, the study and practice of chess strategies that are mirrored in Beth's story.

Well, Beth Harmon is sort of based on a true story. The creators of 'The Queen's Gambit' took the general context of the chess world, like the competitiveness, the rise of young players, and the male - dominated nature of the game. They used these real - life aspects and wove them into Beth's fictional story. For example, in real chess, there are young prodigies who face tough competition, and this is reflected in Beth's journey in the show.

There isn't a single exact person who was the inspiration for Beth Harmon. Instead, she is a composite of many female chess players who had to struggle in the male - dominated chess world.

One key element is her chess talent. She has an extraordinary ability to play chess from a young age. Another is her struggle with drug and alcohol addiction which she battles throughout her rise in the chess world. Also, her relationships, like with her adoptive mother and her various opponents, play important roles in her story.
