The new FIDE rating list for May has been released. Magnus Carlsen remains World Number One by a point. The top 7 remain unchanged. Indeed there were very few remarkable changes this time. Although Vassily Ivanchuk (down from 11th to 12th in the world) has been overtaken by Pavel Eljanov, up to 9th from 16th.

Magnus Carlsen remains top of the FIDE rating list for May 2010, this time by just one point. Carlsen didn't play any games in this period whilst Veselin Topalov closed the gap with his good win in Linares. If Topalov beats Anand for the World Title he'll no doubt take the top spot back as well.

The top 7 remain the same, Wang Yue moves from 10 to 8 in the world, Pavel Eljanov and Alexei Shirov displace Boris Gelfand and Peter Svidler.

Baadur Jobava jumps from 40 to 26 in the world, Ian Nepomniachtchi from 78 to 42, Zahar Efimenko jumps straight back into the list at 53 after falling out last time. Anish Giri is in the top 100 for the first time at 97 in the world.

For the first time in a very long time the rating to make the top 100 has fallen, 2643 last time, 2640 this.
