The first chess Grandmaster from Asia, Vishy – as he is popularly known – rapidly climbed the ranks to become world No. 1 in the sport, bagged five world championship titles, and has to date won tournaments across all formats of the game. An ambassador of the sport like no other, and a valued mentor to young talent, he is one of the most revered names in chess today.
