FIDE September 2011 Rating List
Written by Administrator
Thursday, 01 September 2011
One of the most popular chess players in the world, Alexander Morozevich, is at #17 after succesful performances at Russian Top League, Biel and Russian Superfinal
The only change among the top-5 leading group is that Kramnik is once again Russia's #1 player. Nakamura and Mamedyarov lost a bunch of points and dropped out of the top-10. Grischuk and Kamsky (who broke his personal record dated...1996!) replaced them.
