On Sunday the Tata Steel Tournament ended in Wijk aan Zee and one might have thought that the results of the tournament would have been taken into account in the current list. However, that is not the case.
Magnus Carlsen won in Wijk, and this win brought him a plus of three rating points. Shakhriyar Mamedyarov, Richard Rapport, Jorden van Foreest and Sergey Karjakin also won rating points in Wijk, but Fabiano Caruana lost ten points. The daily rating of the top players can be found on Live Chess Ratings.

Women's chess is even more dormant due to the pandemic that flared up again at the beginning of the year. So no changes at the top. Hou Yifan, who is hardly active any more, leads the women's world rankings by some margin. Vice World Champion Aleksandra Goryachkina is "best of the rest", ahead of Humpy Koneru and World Champion Ju Wenjun.

There are some changes at the top of the juniors' list, as the results of the Sunway Sitges Open, played in December 2021, have been taken into account now. Nihal Sarin, Nodirbek Abdusattorov, Hans Moke Niemann, Shant Sagsyan and Arjun Erigaisi have a few games to their name.

However, Erigaisi's victory in the Challengers tournament in Wijk, which will bring him a plus of 27 points, is not reflected in the February list.

There are also hardly any changes in the list of the world's best girls. But Nurgyul Salimova is listed with 19 games, which she played in Sitges and at the Vergani Cup, where the 19-year old Bulgarian made her first GM norm. These two tournaments brought her a plus of 40 rating points.
