New Top 25 Women's Rankings: Vaishali to No. 5!

The only world in which Vaishali comes close to top 10 is the Fantasy world.
Here are the top women : (but the best woman, Hou Yifan, isn't included because she hates the way championships are done)

And Here are the top player, mixed : (but the best, Magnus Carlsen, isn't included because he hates the way championships are done)

I think it's a rather funny time that we're in where the "Being the best*" always come with an * .
Unfortunately, Divya's standout near-2600 performance to WIN the Sharjah Challengers didn't make it in time for this list. Another junior, Leya Garifullina, also had a strong performance as runner-up in Sharjah as well as a 2578 performance in the Russian Team Championship earlier this month, going undefeated in both events. They're now the #2 and #3 girls in the world after this month. They should certainly be ranked higher on your next list.
@Kawummski said in #5:
> @OnTheQueenside Ah Ok. Did you use a script to compile the list? Did you use Lichess database? Or PGNs?
I just put together the list manually. If I had better datasets available, I would automate it, but I don't think that's feasible with what FIDE (or any other website) provides.
