Die Dezember-Eloliste der FIDE ist da. Nur die Top 10 der Frauen sahen einige geringfügige Verschiebungen, hauptsächlich aufgrund des Kandidatenpools A der Frauen in Monaco, während die Top 10 insgesamt von der Turnieraktion des letzten Monats unberührt blieben. Die einzige sichtbare Positionsänderung ist Tan Zhongyis Rückkehr in die Top 10 der Frauen nach dem Gewinn der chinesischen Meisterschaft.

12-year-old Chinese player Lu Miaoyi (pictured above) got the highest rating gain in the top-100 lists (overall & women); she earned 36.8 points following her excellent performance in the Prva Liga Srbije 2022 and climbed to 2399 and #52 in the Women’s rankings – and #6 in the Girls list. Over the last two months, Lu Miaoyi increased her rating by 126 points.

Yu Yangyi and Jules Moussard (pictured above) won prestigious tournaments Fall Chess Classic in the USA and Turnir Mira in Croatia and earned 12 and 8 rating points, respectively.
Let’s say a few words about the rapid rating changes, given several big competitions in this format in November, including Grand Prix Romania and World Team Championship.
Wesley So emerged as the winner of the 2022 Chess.com Global Championship (a hybrid event rated by FIDE) and picked up 16 rating points. David Navara finished a full point ahead of his main rivals in Grand Prix Romania and earned 11 rating points.
Lastly, the World Team Championship 2022, held in Israel, brought together many strong players from 12 leading chess countries. Looking at the Top 100 Rapid, we can see that only Lu Shanglei (+17), Tamir Nabaty (+8) and David Anton Guijarro (+7) substantially increased their rating, but it is only part of the picture.

The biggest beneficiaries of the World Team Championship are boards 3 and 4 of the Chinese squad Bai Jinshi and Li Di (pictured above), who gained 35 and 32 rating points, respectively, and made a major contribution to China’s success in Jerusalem.
