    I mean, Carlsen is the biggest name in chess since maybe Kasparov or Fischer. And there's a strong argument to be made that he's the best of all time. those sorts of figures always reignite interest and get fame and money that may not be representative of the sport as a whole. It was the same in tennis with Federer and Nadal, golf with Tiger Woods, swimming with Michael Phelps, etc etc
