Alexandra’s proficiency at these jumps must be partly responsible for her string of medals over the last few years. She has scoped four bronze medals, two silver medals and three gold medals, including at the World Junior Championships. Now that she is eighteen, it seems certain that adult titles will follow soon.
Alexandra Vyacheslavovna Trusova was born on June the 23rd, 2004, in Ryazan, Russia. She was the eldest of her parents’ three children, she has two brothers named Egor and Ivan. Alexandra began her training when she was four and naturally did so in her hometown. She progressed quickly and in 2015 moved to Moscow to continue her training.
Just two years later, she participated in the Russian Junior Championships, where she came fourth. A few months later, at the Junior Grand Prix final, she scored 73.25 points and broke the junior women’s world record for the short program. Since then, Alexandra has continued to excel, winning medals and pushing the boundaries of women’s figure skating.
