Who Is in the 2700 Chess Club Right Now?
The “2700 Club” is chess fan shorthand for Super Grandmasters — players who maintain a classical FIDE rating of 2700 or above. It is not an official title, but crossing that threshold places a player among the absolute elite. Only about 32 players worldwide hold this status right now.

What It Takes to Reach 2700
A 2700 rating means a player is consistently performing at a level that would dominate nearly any open tournament on Earth. The gap between 2600 and 2700 is enormous — roughly equivalent to the difference between a strong IM and a world championship contender.
