Carlsen's 117th time as world number one as Van Foreest & Esipenko join 2700 club

The Tata Steel Chess Masters was among the few events to count towards FIDE's March 2021 Rating List that was published on Monday. Ratings winners Jorden van Foreest (+30 to 2701) and Andrey Esipenko (+24 to 2701) are new entries in the 2700 club, while Magnus Carlsen's disappointing 6th place led to him dropping 15 points to 2847, narrowing the gap to Fabiano Caruana, who is now 27 points behind at 2820. The world champion may in any case celebrate 10 consecutive years at number one if he remains on top until July!
