Yevgeniya Estes
Yevgeniya Viktorovna Estes (Template:Lang-ru, born 17 July 1975), née Artamonova (Артамонова), is a Russian former volleyball player who was a member of the national team and one of only two volleyball players (along with Sergey Tetyukhin) that competed consecutively in six Olympic Games.[1] She won silver medals at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, and the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.[1][2]
Estes was briefly unable to play in 1994 due to an injury requiring knee surgery.[3] She quickly recovered and became a dominant force on the Russian national team, leading Russia to the gold medal at the Goodwill Games in Saint Petersburg.[3][4]
In 2018, Estes was inducted into the International Volleyball Hall of Fame.[1]
