Junior career

She started gymnastics and ballet at the age of two and shifted to practicing rhythmic gymnastics at the age of six at Prahran Rhythmic Gymnastics Specialist Centre in Windsor, an inner South-Eastern suburb of Melbourne.[2][6]

Kiroi-Bogatyreva's first Australian Championships was in 2012, and she finished fourth in the all-around among the level 7 juniors.[7] She first competed internationally in 2013, marking her debut with an all-around gold medal at the Vitri Cup in Spain.[8][9] She won four gold medals and one silver medal in the all-around in the 2013 level 7 Australian Championships.[8] She also finished second in the all-around as a level 8 at the 2014 Australian Championships. She won the national all-around title for level 9 juniors in 2015.[7]

Kiroi-Bogatyreva delayed the start of her 2016 season due to an injury, but she returned to competition at the AEON Cup in Tokyo, Japan, and placed 11th with the hoop. After the competition, she spent five months training in Moscow, Russia.

2020

[edit]

In 2020, Kiroi-Bogatyreva competed at the Berlin Masters Tournament and finished fourth in the all-around.[33] In the event finals, she won a gold medal with the clubs, a silver medal with the ball, and a bronze medal with the hoop.[34] The 2020 season was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic in March, and Kiroi-Bogatyreva spent nearly a year training in her house.[12][35]

2021

[edit]

Kiroi-Bogatryeva competed at the 2021 Oceania Championships, which doubled as the Australian Championships and was an Olympic qualifier.[36] She finished in second-place behind Lidiia Iakovleva and did not receive the sole Olympic berth for Oceania. During the all-around event, Iakovleva appealed her ribbon score, and her score was increased on review by 1.9 points which put her first overall ahead of Kiroi-Bogatyreva.[37] Kiroi-Bogatyreva appealed the competition results to the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG). The FIG Rhythmic Gymnastics Technical Commission requested a re-judging of the competition based on the video footage, but the results upheld the placements of Iakovleva first and Kiroi-Bogatyreva second.[38] Kiroi-Bogatyreva further appealed the re-judged result to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, but her appeal was dismissed on the grounds of "Field of Play".[a][37] However, the Gymnastics Ethics Foundation's investigation found issues with the makeup of the judging panel and procedures at the competition,[37] and the Oceania Gymnastics Union, Gymnastics Australia, and competition officials were sanctioned as a result.[40][41]

After missing the Olympic spot, Kiroi-Bogatyreva moved to Baku, Azerbaijan, to train at the National Gymnastics Arena.[6][37][42] Early in October, she returned to competition at the Cluj-Napoca World Challenge Cup and placed 14th in the all-around.[43] She was then selected to compete World Championships in Kitakyushu, Japan, and Kiroi-Bogatyreva finished 36th in the all-around during the qualification round.[44] She was the highest-placing gymnast from the Commonwealth of Nations.[43]

2022

Kiroi-Bogatyreva began the 2022 season at the Tashkent World Cup where she placed 12th in the all-around.[45] Then at the Baku World Cup, she finished 24th in the all-around.[46] At the Australian Championship, Kiroi-Bogatyreva regained the individual all-around national title,[47] while adding two more individual apparatus national titles and a team gold medal.[48]

After successfully qualifying for the World Games in 2019, Kiroi-Bogatyreva took part in the event, hosted in Birmingham, Alabama. She finished 20th in hoop, 12th in ball, 14th in ribbon, and 15th in clubs.[49] She then competed at the 2022 Maccabiah Games, becoming the first Australian rhythmic gymnast to compete at the event, and won five bronze medals.[12] She was selected to represent Australia at the 2022 Commonwealth Games alongside Lidiia Iakovleva and Ashari Gill.[50] The team won the silver medal behind Canada.[51] Individually, Kiroi-Bogatyreva qualified for the all-around final and won the bronze medal behind England's Marfa Ekimova and Cypriot Anna Sokolova.[52] She then won her first Commonwealth Games gold medal in the clubs final.[53]

Kiroi-Bogatyreva concluded her 2022 season by taking part in the World Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria. She placed 30th in the all-around during the qualification round.[54]

2023

[edit]

In April, Kiroi-Bogatyreva took part in the Thais Grand Prix and finished 10th in the all-around.[55] She also finished seventh in the hoop final and eighth in the ribbon final.[56] Then in May, she defended her all-around national championship title for the fourth time.[57] At the first competition of the FIG World Cup series held in Sofia, she finished 32nd in the all-around.[58] She then finished 29th at the Baku World Cup.[59] She was the only Australian individual representative selected for the World Championship, held in Valencia, Spain. She finished 37th all-around in the qualification round.[60]

2024

[edit]

Kiroi-Bogatyreva placed 14th in the all-around at the Marbella Grand Prix, and she finished ninth all-around at the Gymnastik International.[61] She then placed 32nd in the all-around at the 2024 Faliro World Cup.[62] She was the only non-European to compete at the inaugural European Cup, and she came in tenth place.[63]

In May, Kiroi-Bogatyreva competed at 2024 European Championships in Budapest, Hungary, which also doubled as the 2024 Oceania Championships.[64] She won the all-around title and thus claimed the Oceania continental qualification berth for Paris 2024.[65] On 18 June, she was officially announced as Australian Olympic Team member.[66] At the 2024 Summer Olympics, she finished 22nd in the qualification round for the individual all-around.[67]

Personal life

[edit]

Since 2021, Kiroi-Bogatyreva has been studying for a law degree at Monash University.[68] She attends her classes remotely and is planning to work in sports law after graduation.[1][5] She is involved with the Gymnastics Ethics Foundation.[12][69]
