Hi everyone,
Magnus Carlsen, World No. 1 from Norway, is just three points away from former World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov's all-time high rating point of 2851 recorded in July 1. This is according to the November 1 Fide rating list. Coming up is the London Chess Classic for Carlsen which could see him break the record. Meanwhile, except Hikaru Nakamura and Vassily Ivanchuk, all the other top-10 players have remained in the top-10 list. These two Grandmasters are now replaced by Alexander Grischuk and Shakhriyar Mamedyarov. For those interested in statistics, here is Magnus Carlsen's rating progress chart:
