About Anna Cramling

Anna Yolanda Bellón Cramling (born 30 April 2002) is a Spanish-Swedish chess player, Twitch live streamer, and YouTuber who holds the title of Woman FIDE Master (WFM). She had a peak FIDE rating of 2175 in March 2018. Cramling represented Sweden in the 2016 and 2022 Chess Olympiad as well as two European Team Chess Championships. Cramling grew up in a chess-playing family. Her mother is Swedish grandmaster (GM) Pia Cramling, and her father is Spanish GM Juan Manuel Bellón López. She began playing chess at age three in Spain, moving with her family to Sweden at age eleven and switching federations from Spain to Sweden soon afterwards. She participated in several European Youth, World Cadets, World Youth, and World Junior Chess Championships in different age divisions from 2015 until 2019. When representing Sweden in international team competitions, she has played on the same team with her mother while her father has served as the team captain.
