Currently the most popular Grandmasters are Vaselin Topalov, Vishy Anand, and Magnus Carlsen, and, if you are from the USA, Hikaru Nakamura. Currently, Vishy Anand is the reigning World Chess Champion recognized by FIDE. He won the undisputed title in 2008 against Vladimir Kramnik. This match was necessary as Anand was crowned the champion via being the victor in a Championship Tournament, not as a result of Match Play. The result against Kramnik put that 'dispute' to rest.

Emanuel Lasker held the chess champion title for 27 years, longer than any other person; however, he did not have very many challenges. Alexander Alekhine held the title for 17 years and is thought to be the strongest player of his day. Kasparov chose him as the player to study from most. Paul Morphy was never the chess champion on a formal basis since at his time there was none. Informally he was acknowledged to be the best player in his time and some chess greats refused to play him. Bobby Fischer chose him as the player to study from the most.
