GM Bobby Fischer
IcelandBobby Fischer, the eleventh World Chess Champion, redefined chess brilliance with his relentless perfectionism and unmatched preparation. An American prodigy who claimed his first of eight US Championship titles at just 14, he achieved a perfect 11-0 sweep at the 1964 US Championship — a feat never repeated. His legendary 1972 title match against Boris Spassky in Reykjavik, widely seen as a Cold War showdown, captivated the world and remains the most famous championship contest in chess history.
