Have mentioned this before, but worth reflecting on the fact that there was a time that by qualifying for the Candidates, a player gained the title of grandmaster. Quite a few great players (e.g. Petrosian, Geller, Spassky, Fischer…) obtained the GM title precisely this way.

Gata Kamsky is the only chess prodigy to ever be ranked in the TOP TEN at age 16.
There are five others, though, who at least broke into the top twenty at that age. How many of the "other" five can YOU name?
