Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
What does “Wtg1” and “Wtg2” figures stand for in the ranking tables ?
Thank you for answer
Tie breaks 1 and 2. Or it could be Way to go 1 and 2 :-).
As the labels are in German, “Wtg1” and “Wtg2” are German abbreviations, namely for “Wertung 1” and “Wertung 2”. Those stand for the tie breaks, as already mentioned.

Wow, Howell castled long, i.e. three losses in a row (0-0-0). Guess GM Short as his trainer will not be too delighted about that.
