Given the Women table:
+-----+-----------+-------+
|  Id | FirstName | Score |
+-----+-----------+-------+
|   1 | Angelina  |  500  |
|   2 | Paris     |    0  |
|   4 | Jennifer  | NULL  |
|   7 | Misha     | 3000  |
+-----+-----------+-------+
How many records will the following query return:

SELECT * FROM Women
WHERE Score >= ALL (SELECT Score
                    FROM Women
                    WHERE FirstName='Eva');
