The January ratings list has been published.
All Benildus players’ new ratings can be found here on the site. While the excellent live ratings system means that ratings are updated fairly soon after tournaments, the regular ratings in January, May and September form the basis for tournament ratings, so for Gonzaga and Bunratty for example, seedings and sections will be based on the January ratings list.
The club can boast of five of the top improvers in the country in 2012 – Ross Beatty climbed 485 points, the fourth-highest gain. Odhrán is up 336 points to stand at number 8, Mihailo gained 313 points to take eleventh place, while Jamie’s 265 point gain sees him in 16th spot, one ahead of Anastasija, who gained a “mere” 254 points.
