Why Is Magnus Carlsen , Garry Kasprov, Bobby Fisher Always called a GOAT?
(GOAT means : Greatest Of All Time)He's been the highest-rated player in the world for more than a decade and has consistently been ranked World No. 1 since he was just 19. He is the current world champion as of 2013 and holds the highest all-time rating.30-Jan-2023
Kasparov and Carlsen are also close. In my opinion, the greatest of all time is Fischer but Carlsen and Kasparov are also very acceptable answers. Although, Carlsen is by far the best out of the three due to his access to information, engines, databases, and ideas that Fischer and Kasparov never had.
The discussion surrounding the "greatest of all time" (GOAT) in chess has been ongoing for many years, with various players being considered for the title. Some commonly mentioned contenders include Garry Kasparov, Bobby Fischer, and Magnus Carlsen. The debate centers around factors such as tournament results, consistency, and impact on the game. Ultimately, the decision of who is the GOAT is a matter of personal opinion, but it is a topic that continues to fascinate and divide chess enthusiasts. However, in this blog, I will break down the GOAT discussion with statistics, accolades, and a bit of bias.
