The world took notice on Sept. 19, when Magnus Carlsen -- world No. 1 and the World Chess Champion since 2013 -- resigned unexpectedly while playing against Hans Niemann in the sixth round of the Carlsen won the inaugural Vugar Gashimov Memorial (Shamkir Chess) in 2014, an event he'd also win in 2015, 2018, and 2019. In the second game of the 2014 tournament, Carlsen defeated GM Hikaru Nakamura and reached a live rating of 2889.2, the highest ever. Carlsen, right, during the game that set the highest rating mark ever. Vincent won the first match, but Carlsen bounced back in style in the next game to make it 1-1. Thereafter, on the bounce, they played three draws, then Carlsen rose up to the occasion by winning the tie-breaker. Carlsen (right) is one draw away from the semifinals. (FIDE) In the pre-quarterfinals, Carlsen steamrolled the Ukrainian grandmaster 2-0. A quick handshake and it was over. After 20 days and over 50 hours of play, finally there was a result. Magnus Carlsen did what the greats always do when the tension is at its knuckle-gnawing highest.

Second on the list and very close to Magnus is Wesley So who brought in just over $540,000 worth of prize money in 2022 after getting the first prize at Chesscom Global Championship worth of $200,000. Third but for sure not least is the professional streamer and superstar Hikaru Nakamura, who ended the year with a bit more than $515k.
