Praggnanandhaa is now World no.31
R Praggnanandhaa has maintained his world no.31 spot in the live ratings for the past few days. As the maestro, Vishy Anand mentioned, he would like to see Praggnanandhaa have 2700+ published rating in August rating list. Well, if the teenager does not play any more Classical rated games before the FIDE World Cup 2023 starts, that will come true which is highly likely.

Vishy Anand's congratulatory words on International Chess Day is certainly an icing on the cake for Praggnanandhaa
