Updated list of all-time chess rating records

Now let's take a look at the ladies' ratings. Frankly speaking, very little action has taken place in January except for Gibraltar Open, which hasn't been rated yet.

Hou Yifan scored relatively well in Tata Steel Chess A group (5.5/13) and is now firmly at #2 spot among female chess players
