He is light years from the top 5 in that list. He played FIDE "quack" Considering that he is 18 yrs old, he has not played as many games as the top 5, so, for sure he is underrated. When your strength jump, it takes a while for the ELO to catch up. In other words, he _is_ top 5 right now. BTW, I guees that he has a higher elo than Kasparov at his age. I only expect him to keep rising... and rising. >time controls. He wins and now he's taking a step back,basically going back on >his word. He's a FIDE pathetic puppet!!
