The term is also applied more broadly to young people who are extraordinarily talented in some field.

Morphy went on to become the world's leading player before the formal title of World Champion existed. Capablanca became the third World Champion, and Reshevsky—while never attaining the title—was amongst the world's elite players for many decades. Arturo Pomar (1931–2016) was another to be labelled a prodigy by chess writers. He played his first international tou ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
