Prodigy
The Prodigy is the ultimate sportsman. Prodigies play
aggressively and fight for the win from the beginning to the end, but place the highest value on maintaining emotional control and utilizing every opportunity that comes their way. Prodigies are not out to prove any kinds of theories, or to create great works of art (though that often happens anyway); for Prodigies winning is everything… because winning is simply more fun.
Magnus Carlsen is a Prodigy
Magnus Carlsen (born 1990) of Norway, the current world champion, exemplifies the Prodigy. A universal player with an intuitive grasp of chess, much of Carlsen's success can be explained by his psychology which is completely unencumbered by fear. He rarely makes any kind of blunders, and plays on forever to try to win positions with the smallest advantage, or even equal ones. His endgame play is superb, and his constant pressing in every position eventually drives his opponents to make errors. Carlsen is currently the highest rated player in history.
That part is true....lol
