The Chinese Grandmaster Wei Yi was born June 2, 1999, and became a Grandmaster at the age of 13 years, 8 months and 23 days, the fifth youngest in history. At the moment, Wei Yi is the youngest player ever to reach a rating of 2700 – he did so at the age of 15.
With a current rating of 2732 Wei Yi is number 23 on the world ranking list, and he enjoys the reputation of being a dangerous attacking player. No wonder, when you look at his most famous game, his win against Lazaro Bruzon in Danzhou 2015.
