So continues rise in FIDE ratings


MANILA, Philippines – Filipino Grandmaster Wesley continued to move up the ladder as he zoomed two rungs up the FIDE rankings released recently.
From No. 30 in the world in December, the 20-year-old So, who had five tournament victories last year including the Universiade in Kazan, Russia, leapt to No. 28 although his rating remained at 2719.
It did not count his perfect six-of-six performance in the just concluded 2013 Pan American Inter-Collegiate Championship in Lubbock, Texas, where So powered Webster U to an impressive title sweep and emerged as the best individual performer of the strongest collegiate tournament in the Americas.
