The Boy from Baku. Garry Weinstein, who changed his name to Kasparov. Spotted by Botwinnik as a ten year old, who declared that the future of chess was in the hands of this boy, he was a world class player by the age of 15 and remained at the top for a quarter-century with an ELO rating close to 2800, the highest in history, until his recent retirement to quit whilst still at the top and go into politics.
2nd Mikhail Tal
3rd Bobby Fischer
Watch out for another Boy from Baku, World No 7 at the age of 19, Taimur Radjabov looks set to be the next World Champion and a great one as well.

I agree tremendously lots with each and all the concepts in this record, although i'm going to have in all probability ranked a number of them in a diverse way. i think of Fischer could have been a minimum of interior the coolest 3 gamers. yet i think of Kasparov and Karpov have been the two between the very properly suited gamers of all time, particularly because of the undeniable fact that the contest immediately is consdierably sturdy than, say, interior the interior the 1st few ds or ahead of that. anyplace one ranks great gamers in a itemizing like this, is in fact subjective.

Bob Ahhbouey He is the reigning World blitz champion in 5 minute and 10 minute time controls. Would have been designated the world's youngest GM at age 12 years 7 months 3 days had the arbiter filed the necesary paperwork within the required time post-tournament. May soon have a line in the French Defence named after him. Clearly a genius in our time.

Bobby Fischer, because I cant spell any of those Russian names. Although Ruy Lopez, the Spainish priest was quite an innovator for his time, and his opening moves are all time classics.
