Sam Shankland's incredible rise continued in June, as he played a further 11 classical games without a loss, and climbed to number 27 in the world at 2727 and oh, by the way, he's (nearly) 27 years old! Chew on that one numerologists!

Other than that, minor reshufflings at the top of the list saw Maxime Vachier-Lagrave slip two places to number 8 and Wesley So climb two to number 7. Vachier-Lagrave shed 10 points in Norway Chess as he finished tied for last with 3.0/9.

It was plus or minus 14 that was the magic number this month, representing the maximum rating gain or loss of any player in the top 100. Among the gainers was Dmitry Jakovenko thanks to his Poikovsky win last month. Boris Gelfand upped his rating game in the same event, en route to his shared second place finish. He's back over 2700 and rejoins the top 50 at number 42.
David Navara has been extremely active and the final +14er moved up six spots to number 20.
The only other top players cracking double-digit rating changes, aside from Vachier-Lagrave, were also to the downside, Li Chao and Maxim Rodshtein each slipped 10 points.

The only change at the top of the women's list is the fall out of the top ten by China's Lei Tingjie (pictured), who was the second most active player with 18 games, but crashed 57 rating points to take up residence at number 22.
Former World Champion Alexandra Kosteniuk played 13 games, but barely budged her rating, and stays at world number 5.
The most active was Mongolia's top female player Batkhuyag Munguntuul, who played two 11-round classical tournaments in June for a net gain of 7 points and 9 notches higher on the world rank at number 47.

The new Polish ace, Jan-Krzysztof Duda is now also the world's highest-rated Junior player, surpassing Wei Yi thanks to Duda's strong showing in the French Top 12.
Keep an eye on Alexey Sarana, who moved up five spots from 21 to 16 and is currently playing remarkably well in the Russian Higher League.
Down the list a bit, the Indian Karthik Venkataraman found time to play 20 rated games in June and leapt from barely cracking the list at 98 up to number 60.

Anand fell by a similar margin, dropping from third at 2822 down to the 15th spot at 2758.
Aronian, Vachier-Lagrave and Karjakin all gained rapid rating with the latter two joining the top ten.
Caruana slid to number 26, and moreover is 142 points behind Magnus Carlsen, which bodes ill for the American in any rapid tiebreak scenario in the World Championship.

The pair of Grand Chess tour blitz tournaments meant that the elite played an inordinately high number of rated blitz games in this rating period as well. Here So was a net loser, dropping back to number 12 from number three. Karjakin re-established himself near the top of the list, and Nakamura's Paris win propelled him over 2900 and in reach of Magnus.
Curiously, Grischuk's 36 games led to a net rating change of exactly zero points!
Caruana was the biggest blitz loser, as his rating cratered, from 2818 in June to 2709 in July, putting him way down at 35th place in the world rankings. Ouch!
