Only one player has dropped below 2700 in the new list, Emil Sutovsky of Israel.
However a startling seven new entries have occurred:
Apart from Morozevich, the improvement over the last year of other 'mature' players such as Gata Kamsky and Alexei Dreev is notable. Gata Kamsky, along with Viswanathan Anand for example are the only players in the top twenty to have their career highest rating at present!
