Chess career

Born in 1996, Studer earned his international master title in 2014 and his grandmaster title in 2017. His achievement of the latter title at the age of 20 makes him Switzerland's youngest ever grandmaster.[1] He is the No. 7 ranked Swiss player as of October 2017.[2]

In 2019, Studer won the Accentus Young Masters, held from 27 February to 7 March. He won his first five games, and finished one point clear of the rest of the field with 7½/9 (+6–0=3).[3]

gollark: I see.
gollark: Newer stuff might be horrifically complicated, but at least it's kind of partly designed with security in mind and we have ASLR and Rust and MMUs and whatever.
gollark: Oh, because THOSE have VERY robust software.
gollark: My phone still hasn't been patched for a very unspecific critical-level vulnerability in some Qualcomm "closed-source components", which is very !!FUN!!.
gollark: Computer systems, in general, are bad enough that if you don't keep up with patches ever few months your stuff is probably vulnerable to a few things, particularly old complex software like Wordpress.
