FIDE gave Armenian young chess granted Tigran Kotanjyan the title
of Grand Master. The latter met all the criteria of Grand Master for
the third time in the 2006 Armenian Championship.
Tigran Kotanjyan is the 18th Armenian chess player entitled to Grand
Master's title. Levon Aronyan has the highest rating among Armenian
chess players (2756 points) and is in the third place in the world.
Vladimir Hakobyan is in the 16th place with his 2706 points. To note,
Armenian Grand Masters have recently improved their ratings. Hakobyan
will likely be included in the list of the best 10 players in the
new table. Vladimir gained 9 points in 12 rounds held by him. Gabriel
Sargsyan also made great progress and will likely appear in the list
of the best players too.
