The World Champion Cheese of 2020 is Swiss cheese.
To be precise, it's a Gruyère, specifically the Gourmino Le Gruyère AOP, which just plain sounds good. I've had Gruyère, though not the world champion kind, and I really like it.
Second place was the Gallus Grand Cru, a hard cow's milk cheese. Third place was a Gouda, the Lutjewiinkel Noord Hollandse Gouda PDO.
I learned all about this from the Wisconsin Farmer:

There is a video, but I wish there were pictures of the top cheeses, something like this (this is a picture from this year's contest):
Better yet, samples of the top cheeses, but I'd be in lactose overload well before I could try them all.
