A big round of applause to the 42 young ladies who represent the state of Illinois on US Chess’ most recent Top 100 Lists for Girls—from Shreya (rank 2), Natalie (rank 4) and Aria (rank 7) to 7-year old Devaanshi Bothe, our youngest candidate. These lists are generated on the third Wednesday of the previous month based on the players’ regular ratings for over-the-board play. Last year, US Chess added top 100 lists for online rating systems (blitz and quick), which can be found at their website.
Only current US Chess members with established ratings and ratings activity in the last year are mentioned. Please contact youth@il-chess.org if you have questions about these lists.
