Just one rating list after taking top spot in the world after Kasparov's retirement meant that his rating became inactive Veselin Topalov has now exceeded Kasparov's final rating of 2812. He added 9 points after winning the MTel Masters in Sofia. Viswanathan Anand lost a few rating points at that event and a lot at the Olympiad where he managed only 50%. The rise of Levon Aronian the youngest player in the top 10 and the only player born in the 1980s continues as he gained 21 points in the period with his performances inthe Russian Team Championships and the Olympiad. Vladimir Kramnik's return at the Olympiad gained him 14 points and projects him back to number four in the world. Michael Adams returns to the top 10 gaining 12 points. Poor recent form has lost Ruslan Ponomariov 17 points and he drops from 6 to 13. Shakhriyaz Mamedyarov gained 23 points to rise to 12 in the world. David Navarra rises even further from 50 to 14 in the world after gaining a massive 61 points. Gata Kamsky's Olympiad and MTel performances means that he gains 26 points. Sergey Karjakin rises from 45 to 27 in the world, and his rival Magnus Carlsen from 63 to 34, both were born in 1990, after them the youngest players in the top 100 were born in 1987. Gabriel Sargissian is the top re-entry into the list rising from 2612 to 2667. Another surprise was FM Vladimir Afromeev's entry into the list with a rating of 2620, initially his April rating was given as 2558 but this must have been corrected at some point to 2612, he gained a further 8 points from a tournament in Tula to become the only non-GM in the list, especially surprising as he was born in 1954. 2619 is the mark to get into the top 100. It is surely well beyond the time to change the mark at which a GM norm is set (2600) which is a performance which clearly wouldn't get you anywhere near the top 100 (when it was originally set it was a performance of Candidates class which is now probably over 2700).
