Garry Kasparov, the chess world's youngest-ever champion and its public face and undisputed king the last two decades, made a stunning move shortly after winning a prestigious tournament in Spain: He announced his retirement from professional play.

(I hate all the chess jokes, the title is "checks out", he made "a move", he's the "king", ....)
