Garry Kasparov
Garry Kimovich Kasparov is a Russian chess grandmaster, former world chess champion, writer, and political activist, whom many consider to be the greatest chess player of all time. From 1986 until his retirement in 2005, Kasparov was ranked world No. 1 for 225 out of 228 months.p
Yet 20 years on Garry Kasparov is still considered the greatest chess player in history, a genius so special he became world champion at 22 and was then almost invincible for two decades. Now, 12 years after he turned his back on the professional game, the king is back.The study found that intelligence was linked to chess skill for the overall sample, but particularly among young chess players and those at lower levels of skill. This may be because the upper-level players represent a winnowed distribution of cognitive ability -- in other words, they all tend to be fairly bright.

Fraser-Pryce
Fraser-Pryce is the only sprinter, male or female, to be crowned world champion over 100 m four times (2009, 2013, 2015 and 2019).[8][9] Since 2008, she has won four of the five world 100 m titles she has contested, as well as two of the last three Olympic 100 m titles.[10] She is the second female sprinter to hold world and Olympic 100 m titles simultaneously—and the first female sprinter to do so twice. In 2013 she became the first female sprinter to win gold medals in the 100 m, 200 m and 4 × 100 m in a single World Championship, and also became the first woman to hold world titles at 60 m, 100 m, 200 m and 4 × 100 m relay simultaneously.[11]
With over a decade of dominance in the sport, Fraser-Pryce has won more global 100 m titles than any other female sprinter in history.[12][13] Nicknamed the "Pocket Rocket"[11] for her petite frame (she stands 5 feet tall) and explosive block starts, she is ranked fourth on the list of the fastest 100 m female sprinters of all time, with a personal best of 10.70 seconds.[14] Due to her achievements and consistency, many publications and sports analysts, including former Olympian Michael Johnson,[15] refer to Fraser-Pryce as the greatest female sprinter of all time.[16][17][18][19][20] World Athletics calls her “the greatest female sprinter of her generation".
