Original article on the Interview with GM Yaroslav Zhrebukh available on William’s site.
Yaroslav Zhrebukh (FIDE 2580) is a 17 year old Grandmaster from the Ukraine who earned the GM title when he was only 15 years old! He is in the top 10 highest rated U18 players in the world and shows tons of potential to become a top 2700+ super GM within the next few years with many convincing wins against many super GMs such as Pavel Elijanov and David Navara. We hope to see more of this talented young man in coming years.
We caught up with him and he was kind enough to do an interview for us available here.

A 17 year old with a 2780 rating? He must be the next Carlsen.
His FIDE is “2580” Sorry that was a typo, lol! – NM Stewart
I like his rating better at 2780.
