Vlady,a friend,rival and confidant. One of the most influential chess players of our times.His rivalry was a constant inspiration.I will miss his dry humour at tournaments. For me you will always be the Big Vlad from 89. All the best Vlady in your new avatar.#VladimirKramnik

Kramniks influence on modern opening strategy cannot be overestimated. Obviously the Berlin, but noteworthyly Caruanass choice of the Petroff and Magnus of the Sveshnikov against 1 e4 are both openings modernized by Kramnik.

#Kramnik The first player to break Kasparov - his career could be remembered for that alone. But there is also a wonderful legacy of games, and a gent on and off the board.

Vladimir Kramnik retiring is a sad day for chess. He has given so much to the game and will especially be remembered as the man who took the title from Garry Kasparov at a time when that seemed impossible. Big Vlad, we hope you reconsider. You are loved and respected by all! https://t.co/NioiHkeUz9

Can't really imagine chess without Kramnik. He was always there, just a year older than me, and miles better at everything - an unattainable ideal to aspire to. Be well, and good luck with everything in the years to come.

Vladimir Kramnik is one of the greatest players of all time and certainly one of the most influential figures for our understanding of the game. His understanding and creativity is something I've always admired. Sad to see him leave competitive chess.

It's a sad day for chess. Another giant leaves the game earlier than we all would hope for.Vladimir Kramnik leaves an incredible legacy behind him. Almost every opening line played in last 25 years has his major input.Thanks maestro https://t.co/1xgAAJ0rcR https://t.co/1xgAAJ0rcR

Very sad to hear about the retirement of Vladimir Kramnik. It was an honour to play him several times, including as an 11-year-old (see below). He also taught me a lesson at last year's Olympiad. A true gentleman and one of my favourite players. #legendofchess pic.twitter.com/EzWalUSbHU

Vladimir Kramnik retiring from #chess is really an end of an era. Back in 2000 he accomplished what few thought was possible, when he dethroned Garry Kasparov. Generations of chess players looked up to him and drew inspiration from his extraordinary opening ideas. https://t.co/aCCua6Ldzp

Kramnik will be remembered as the man who defeated Kasparov, for the World Title Matches against Leko, Anand and especially Topalov. For years in opening theory Kramnik seemed to set the agenda for professionals so high was the quality of his preparation.

Kramnik just announced his retirement from professional chess. He was one of the great players of his generation. He has deep knowledge and understanding of chess. What are some of his chess accomplishments which stand out in your minds? @ruchess_eng @FIDE_chess @EuropeEchecs pic.twitter.com/ifaxhuTnTn

Vladimir Kramnik bows out after a magnificent career. His #chess has been often exquisite, and always instructive. I might add that I know exactly what he means about flagging motivation.

Kramnik told me a few years ago at the London Classic that when he felt he couldn't maintain his true level then he'd call it a day. He gave it one last punt in Wijk but it was clear that the spark had gone. He is a true champion and wish him all the best in his future endeavours

The new Kramnik, aka "I was completely winning", was much funnier than the old one, one of the greatest chess players ever. Don't know which one I'll miss the most. Thanks VK for all the fresh ideas brought to the chess board.

What a career, what a player! Hats off Vladimir Kramnik #WorldChampion
