Anna & Mariya Muzychuk World Chess Champion
Anna Muzychuk
Ukrainian GM Anna Muzychuk is easily among the world’s best female chess players. She’s the fourth woman to achieve a 2600 rating and has won three world titles for shorter time controls: two Women's World Blitz Chess Championships (2014 and 2016) and one Women's World Rapid Chess Championship (2016). Muzychuk has also won two national championships. She won the Ukranian Women’s Championship in 2003 and—after playing with the Slovenian chess federation for 10 years—in 2014 during her next try when she returned to her home country.
Muzychuk made her first top-10 appearance on FIDE’s Top 100 Women list in January 2009 and hasn’t lost that distinction. As one of the elite names in women’s chess, Anna Muzychuk is a household name in Ukraine. She was featured with her younger sister, GM Mariya Muzychuk, on a Ukrainian postage stamp when Mariya won the 2015 Women’s World Chess Championship.
Mariya Muzychuk
Ukrainian GM Mariya Muzychuk belongs on the short list of elite female chess players. She captured the most prestigious championship in chess by becoming Women’s World Chess Champion in 2015—the same year she entered the top-10 ranked women in the world (and hasn't yet departed that list). Muzychuk also won back-to-back Ukrainian national championships in 2012 and 2013 on top of her three national titles in youth events.
She’s often recognized for being part of an elite sibling duo in chess. Her sister, GM Anna Muzychuk, has won two national championships (one in Ukraine and one in Slovenia) and three world titles for shorter time controls (one in blitz and two in rapid). Both sisters were featured on a Ukrainian postage stamp when Mariya won the women’s world title in 2015.
