Bobby Fischer was renowned for his opening preparation and made numerous contributions to chess opening theory. He was one of the foremost experts on the Ruy Lopez. The Ruy Lopez remains the most commonly used amongst the open games in master play. Due to the difficulty for Black in achieving equality, a common nickname for the opening is "The Spanish Torture".
