Top 100

Magnus Carlsen remains the sole leader of the FIDE world rankings with an Elo of 2833, although he has only played two classical games this year, both in the Bundesliga for St. Pauli.

Fabiano Caruana lost his second place following a poor showing at the Wijk aan Zee tournament, dropping twenty points to fourth in the world rankings. Hikaru Nakamura has benefited from this, even though he did not play a rated game in February, and is now in second place. Erigaisi lost even more points than Caruana. The Indian has dropped to fifth place.

In February's list, there were still four players above 2800 Elo. Since Caruana and Erigaisi have left the zone, only two 2800s remain: Carlsen and Nakamura. 

World Champion Gukesh moved up to third place in the world rankings with his second place in Wijk. The youngest World Champion of all time is still on his way up. Nodirbek Abdusattorov also picked up a few points. However, the Uzbek remains in sixth place. Wei Yi and Praggnanandhaa follow in seventh and eighth place on the world rankings and Alireza Firouzja and Ian Nepomniachtchi complete the top ten.
