Kasparov he can still beat anyone alive and I'm sure if he was motivated could make a come back and climb to number #1 again if he ever wanted to one last time.
But life goes on people grow older and want to do other things with their life besides moving pieces of wood on a checker board.
Using normalised ratings, Kasparov was by far the best to ever play. However, ratings deteriorate over time and due to his retirement it is unlikely he would be able to compete at that level without an arduous comeback.
Vladmir Kramnik must be a better chess player than is Garry Kasparov.
While Garry Kasparov was easily one of the greatest ever, he has since retired.
It is perhaps more work, than people realize, to stay currently among the best.
