FIDE Ratings:
Two players completed the requirements to earn an official FIDE Rating: Zachary Raves and Vardhan Gudla. Their ratings will be published in the August FIDE Ratings List.
Seven other players, by playing one or more FIDE-rated players and scoring at least 1/2 point in those games, initiated their FIDE ratings. This means that all they need to do now is play from one to four more games against FIDE-rated players within the next 24 months to earn their official FIDE rating. I have communicated their status to each player in a separate email.t Priz
