Robert J Fischer - arguably the strongest player in Chess History

Robert James "Bobby" Fischer (March 9, 1943 - January 17, 2008) was an American chess player and the eleventh World Chess Champion. He is widely considered one of the greatest chess players of all time. Fischer was also a best-selling chess writer. After ending his competitive career, he proposed a new variant of chess, and a modified chess timing system; both of these ideas have received some support in recent years. Widely considered a "chess legend", at age 13 Fischer won a "brilliancy" that became known as the Game of the Century. Starting at age 14, he played in eight United States Championships, winning each by at least a point. At 15 , he became both the youngest Grandmaster and the youngest Candidate for the World Championship up until that time. He won the 1963-64 US championship 11-0, the only perfect score in the history of the tournament. In the early 1970s he became the most dominant player in modern history - winning the 1970 Interzonal by a record 3 -point margin and winning 20 consecutive games, including two unprecedented 6-0 sweeps in the Candidates Matches. According to research by Jeff Sonas, in 1971 Fischer had separated himself from the rest of the world by a larger margin of playing skill than any player since the 1870s. He became the first official World Chess Federation (Federation Internationale des Echecs) (FIDE) number one rated chessplayer in July 1971, and his 54 total months at number one is the third longest of all-time. - Wiki
