Magnus Carlsen strengthened his grip on the number 1 spot after his performance in Biel. The top 10 has the same players with Nakamura rising to 5 in the world and within reach of Fischer's 2785 US record. Morozevich drops to 10 in the World but his ill-health brings into question when he will play again. Anish Giri enters the top 20 in the world with a gain of 19 points. Viktor Bologan lost 22 points in Biel, Wang Hao hained 16 points to rise to 15th in the world after Biel.
