The man of the month would have to be Teimour Radjabov who returns from a long absence from the top of the podium to turn in a superb result at the Geneva Grand Prix. Even his last-round game was fought to the very end, in which he only needed a draw to secure the title, but declined a draw offer from his arch-rival Ian Nepomniachtchi, feeling he could win!

18-year-old Wei Yi is a player who has been having a breakthrough year. While he has long been know as a super talent, the last couple of years have seen him slow down, as he prepared to make his next great leap. His powerful win at the Danzhou International tournament, on the heels of a hat trick win of the Chinese Championship have added 47 Elo to his tally this year, and he is now no. 14.

The biggest Elo gain was by Alexander Grischuk, returning to his rightful place in the Top Ten. Not only did the Russian perform strongly at the Geneva Grand Prix, but he also trounced Yu Yangyi by 3-1 in a match.

There was a bit of doubt on where to mention this rising star: in the Top 100 Women, or the Top 100 Girls? 13-year-old WFM (not for long) Bibisara Assaubayeva will certainly be gracing the Girls' list for many years to come, but with her latest 35 Elo gain, she has broken past 2400 (enough to get her IM title) and is the no. 47 among women. Her latest jump was thanks to her superb result at the Russian Higher League for Women where she placed 6th, and her 4/4 result at the Match of the Millenials.

There were many excellent results among the juniors, one of which was Iranian IM Alireza Firouzja, who gained 18 Elo at the 2nd Stars Cup to break past 2500 to 2517. Having just turned 14 a little over a month ago, he is on pace to become Iran's youngest GM ever and enter the list of some of the youngest ever.
