Daniil Dubov, Grandmaster at 14

He is currently the second youngest GM in the world (the youngest by a few months is Illya Nyzhnyk). Born April 18, 1996 in Russia, Daniil Dubov became an FM in 2008, an IM in 2010 and a GM on 28 March 2011, at 14 years 11 months and 14 days. This rising Russian star has played with astonishing consistency since he took up competition chess.
