Young grandmaster Mark Paragua, aching to regain a spot in the elite top 100 of FIDE rating list, lost eight precious points but remained the leading Filipino player in the prestigious ladder.


Already out of the elite group last July, Paragua, 22, saw his 2607 rating dip even further to 2599 this month.


Paragua barged into the top 100 early this year to become the first Filipino to do so since Eugene Torre accomplished the feat in the early 90s.


Torre, 55, for his part, gained nine points to improve from No. 3 with a 2543 rating to No. 2 with a 2552.
