Did Garry Kasparov have cosmetic surgery?

Garry Kasparov is a former world chess champion, political activist, and author, widely regarded as one of the greatest chess players of all time. He dominated the chess world from 1985 to 2000 and has since become an influential voice in politics and technology.

Garry Kasparov was born on April 13, 1963, in Baku, Azerbaijan SSR, then part of the Soviet Union. He began playing chess at a young age and quickly rose through the ranks, showing prodigious talent.

Kasparov has been married three times and has four children. He is known for his strong political views and activism, particularly in opposition to Vladimir Putin's government in Russia.

Kasparov became the youngest undisputed World Chess Champion in 1985 at the age of 22. He held the official FIDE world title until 1993 and continued to be the world's top player for many years. He retired from professional chess in 2005 to focus on politics and writing.

Kasparov's notable achievements include his record-breaking reign as the world’s top-ranked player, his historic matches against IBM's Deep Blue, and his extensive contributions to chess literature and theory.

Kasparov has faced controversy primarily due to his political activism. He has been arrested multiple times during protests and has been a vocal critic of the Russian government, which has led to various political and legal challenges.

Kasparov has authored several books, including "Garry Kasparov on My Great Predecessors," "How Life Imitates Chess," and "Winter Is Coming," which discuss his chess career, strategic thinking, and political views.
