Welcome - my name is Matthew Wadsworth, and I am a 25 year old grandmaster from the United Kingdom. I graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2022 and am currently pursuing chess full-time through both playing and coaching. In 2025, I became the most recent Grandmaster from England, and my current FIDE rating of 2532 puts me at #7 in the country.

I have been coaching since 2019 and have developed a huge amount as both a player and a coach since then, having worked with over 60 individual students in that time.

For any inquiries (playing/coaching/other), please send me a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
