About Shravan Sabarish
This is the official chess profile of Shravan Sabarish — competitive chess player from Hartland, Wisconsin. He picked up chess at age 7 in early 2023 and entered his first OTB tournament in September 2023, unrated, earning an initial USCF Regular rating of 1018. Over the following two and a half years, his rating climbed steadily through consistent tournament play across the Midwest.
Through 2024, he built his foundation — 119 classical games, deliberate match-ups against higher-rated players, and a systematic approach to every opening, endgame, and tactical theme. His rating climbed past 1300. As his game matured, he intensified his training and competitive schedule.
The acceleration that followed was extraordinary. By April 2026, his USCF rating reached 1819 and FIDE Standard 1770 — earning the FIDE Arena Candidate Master (ACM) title — based on his FIDE online arena rating and a national ranking of #63 (USCF) and #77 in the Americas (FIDE, age 11 and under). He is 10 years old, and the trajectory points only upward.
