After the protest of the Indian Chess Federation FIDE implemented
changes in the last list of best chess players of the world. Now it
is headed by Vishvanatan Anand (2786 points), who was occupying the
second place before.

The second comes Veselin Topalov of Bulgaria (2 772 points). Russian
Vladimir Kramink is the third with 2 772 points. Russian Alexander
Morozevich is in the forth place with 2 763 points. Levon Aronyan
went to the fifth position with 2 759 points.

The changes implemented by FIDE are conditioned by the fact that
nitially it did not take into consideration the results of the
Morelia-Linares tournament, where Anand and Morozevich improved
their results.
