These are our US Top Male Chess Players. We have finally extended the list in order to display our 20 top rated men. We have also updated the ratings to those of July 2018. With each name we will try to provide information about their love stories, current marital status and other interesting facts about them. Do not expect commented chess games, unless there is something sexy in them….
Following our policy, we will not post anything about players under the age of 21.
