List of Chess Grandmasters (Complete List 2023)

You’ll find below a table with the complete list of all chess grandmasters in the world recognized by the World Chess Federation (FIDE), sorted alphabetically by their last name.

The title of Grandmaster first gained official recognition in 1950 when FIDE established the international title system. Twelve players were awarded the title at that time, including legends like Mikhail Botvinnik, Vasily Smyslov, and David Bronstein. Since then, the ranks of Grandmasters have continued to expand, with the title becoming a widely sought-after accolade in the world of chess.

By the early 2000’s, there were approximately 1,700 Grandmasters in the world. However, this number has grown significantly since then. While exact figures are subject to change as new Grandmasters emerge, it is estimated that there are now over 2,000 Grandmasters globally.

Here is the complete list from FIDE.
