The World Championship match between Vladimir Kramnik and Veselin Topalov didn't change the order of the top three but Topalov lost 30 rating points from the match and the Essent tournament that followed it. Anand was inactive and Kramnik gained 16 points. A poor period for Peter Svidler cost him 22 rating points and a drop to 12th in the world, making the reverse journey from 12th to 4th was Shakhriyaz Mamedyarov. Judit Polgar gained 17 rating points and Ruslan Ponomariov 20 but otherwise changes were confined to single figures in the top 20. This is the second list in a row where the composition of the top 20 has remained the same although Krishnan Sasikiran is rated at 2700 the same as 20th placed Akopian. Some random observations on the rest of the list show that Magnus Carlsen lost 8 rating points and three places as he starts to adjust to stronger tournaments, his age rival (both born in 1990) Sergey Karjakin edged up 6 places and 6 points. Lenier Dominguez gained 22 points and 22 places to stand and 30 in the world. 21 year old Ernest Inarkiev rose from 88 to 34 in the world gaining 41 points, at least in part from the Russian Championship, 23 year old Dmitry Jakovenko gained 20 points to rise to 22 in the world and 21 year old Evgeny Alekseev gained 22 points from the same event. Evgeny Bareev dropped from 24 to 66 in the world losing 40 points. Strangely 2619 was enough to make it into the top 100 as opposed to 2620 last time an anomaly which goes against the recent trend of the mark being higher each time although the average rating of the top 100 of 2666 remains the same. Eight players dropped out of the list including Oleg Korneev who lost a disastrous 51 points, Evgeniy Najer, Lazaro Bruzon, Julio Granda Zuniga, Aleksandar Delchev, Vladimir Baklan, Miguel Illescas Cordoba and Igor Khenkin. Back into the list is 52 year old Kevin Spraggett for the first time in a long time, other re-entries include Emil Sutovsky and 74 year old legend Viktor Korchnoi. 19 year old Evgeny Tomashevsky makes it in for the first time.
