Vera Yevgenyevna Bazarova (Template:Lang-ru, born 28 January 1993 in Yekaterinburg, Russia) is a Russian pair skater. With partner Yuri Larionov, she is the 2011 European bronze medalist, 2010 and 2011 Russian bronze medalist and 2007 World Junior silver medalist. They have won three senior Grand Prix medals.

Career

Bazarova began skating aged three in Yekaterinburg and trained mostly as a singles skater until the age of 12.[4] At that time, coach Ludmila Kalinina invited her to Perm to train in pair skating.[4] In spring 2005, Kalinina paired Bazarova with Yuri Larionov.[4] They trained in Perm at the Orlenok Ice Palace until 2011,[5][4] unlike most elite Russian pairs who are based in Saint Petersburg or Moscow. They admire Elena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze.[6]

Bazarova and Larionov with coach Ludmila Kalinina

Bazarova and Larionov took silver at 2007 Junior Worlds. In October, they won their first senior international medal when they claimed the bronze at 2007 Skate America. In December of the same year, the pair won gold at the 2007 Junior Grand Prix Final. However, in January 2008, the team was stripped of the medal due to a doping violation on a blood sample Larionov gave before the Final.[7] Larionov was also suspended for two years, beginning on 18 January 2008.[8] His sentence was later reduced to 18-months, and ended on 17 July 2009.[9]

Bazarova decided to wait for Larionov, "There were offers from others, but I said right away that I'm not going to skate with someone else."[4] The pair made their return to competition during the 2009–10 season. Their first event was the 2009 Cup of Russia where they placed fourth and they won the bronze medal at Russian Nationals, earning them further assignments. In January 2010, the pair finished 5th at the European Championships. In February, they placed 11th at the Olympics and then completed their season with an 8th place finish at the World Championships in March. They were named Breakthrough of the Year (pair skating) at the 2010 Crystal Ice Awards held in October 2010 in Moscow.[10]

Bazarova and Larionov began the 2010–11 season with a win at 2010 Nebelhorn Trophy in September. Their first Grand Prix event was the 2010 NHK Trophy in October, where they won the silver medal. At 2010 Trophée Eric Bompard, they won another silver medal, in doing so setting new personal best scores in the short program (64.18) and long program (118.82). Their results qualified them for the Grand Prix Final, their first at the senior level, where they finished fifth. At the Russian Nationals they won their second bronze medal.

At the 2011 European Championships, they won the bronze medal after finishing third in both programs and setting personal best scores in the long program and combined total (188.24).[11][12] Although many skaters, including those based at other Russian training centers, criticized the freezing conditions at the arena, Bazarova said, "At home in our ice rink in Perm, it can also be very cold so we are kind of used to it."[12] At the 2011 World Championships, they finished 5th.

In June 2011, it was reported that the pair and their coach, Ludmila Kalinina, would move from Perm to Saransk.[13][5] For the 2011–2012 season, Bazarova and Larionov are assigned to 2011 Skate America and 2011 Trophée Eric Bompard as their Grand Prix events.

Personal life

Bazarova began studying at Perm State Pedagogical University, Faculty of Physical Education, in 2009.[4][14] In June 2010, she and Larionov confirmed they are dating.[4]
