She is the 2016 World bronze medalist, a two-time (2015–2016) European bronze medalist, and the 2016 Russian national bronze medalist. On the junior level, she won bronze medals at the 2013 World Junior Championships and 2012–13 JGP Final.

Personal life

Anna Alexeyevna Pogorilaya was born 10 April 1998 in Moscow.[1] Her parents are from Kharkiv, Ukraine.[2][3] She has a brother who is three years older.[2]

Career

Pogorilaya began skating at age four.[2] Anna Tsareva became her coach around 2004.[4]

Pogorilaya missed the 2009–10 season due to Osgood–Schlatter affecting both of her legs, as well as a concussion.[5] She placed 15th at the Russian Junior Championships in 2011 and 13th in 2012.

2012–13 season: World Junior bronze medal

In the 2012–13 season, Pogorilaya made her ISU Junior Grand Prix debut. After taking bronze in Croatia, her first event, she then won gold at the JGP event in Germany. She qualified for the JGP Final in Sochi, where she won the bronze medal. At the Russian Championships, Pogorilaya placed fifth in her senior debut and sixth on the junior level. She took the bronze medal at the 2013 World Junior Championships in Milan, with teammates Elena Radionova and Yulia Lipnitskaya taking the gold and silver medals respectively.

2013–14 season: Senior international debut

Making her senior Grand Prix debut, Pogorilaya placed third in the short program and first in the free skate at the 2013 Cup of China. She edged out teammate Adelina Sotnikova and Italian Carolina Kostner for the gold medal.[6] After winning bronze at the 2013 Trophee Eric Bompard, behind Sotnikova, she qualified for her first senior Grand Prix Final. In early December 2013, Pogorilaya said she was receiving more ice time and training twice as much as before.[7] In Fukuoka, Japan, she placed sixth in the short program, fifth in the free skate, and sixth overall.

Following an eighth-place result at the 2014 Russian Championships, she was not assigned to the 2014 European Championships but was later named in the Russian team to the 2014 World Championships. At Worlds in Saitama, Japan, Pogorilaya placed sixth in the short program and third in the free skate, scoring personal bests in both segments. She won a small bronze medal for the free skate and finished fourth overall, behind Carolina Kostner.

2014–15 season: First European medal

Pogorilaya started the 2014–15 season at the 2014 Japan Open. She placed third with a score of 122.52 points in her free skate, helping Team Europe win the gold medal. Competing at her first Grand Prix event of the season, the 2014 Skate Canada, she placed first in both programs and won the gold medal with a total of 191.81 points. She took the silver medal behind Rika Hongo at the 2014 Rostelecom Cup and qualified for her second GP Final. She finished fourth at the 2014–15 Grand Prix Final in Barcelona after placing fourth in both segments.[8]

Pogorilaya then went on to finish fourth at the 2015 Russian Championships after placing fourth in the short program with a score of 71.17 and fourth in the free skate with a score of 133.34, and earning a combined total of 204.51.

Pogorilaya was selected to compete at the 2015 European Championships where she won the bronze medal after finishing third in both segments, scoring 66.10 in the short program, 125.71 in the freeskate, and earning a combined total of 191.81.

Pogorilaya was selected for the 2015 World Championships in Shanghai. Before the Worlds, Pogorilaya had been off the ice for a month because of an ankle injury where she sprained her foot and partially tore her ligament in practice.[9] Despite not having fully recovered from her injury, Pogorilaya chose to compete anyway.[10] In the short program she had a hard fall on her triple loop and hit her face, placing 9th with a score of 60.50. In the free program, she singled a triple lutz and fell twice, on another triple lutz and on a double Axel-triple toeloop combination. She placed 13th in the free program with a score of 99.81 and 13th overall with a total score of 160.31.

2015–16 season: World bronze medal

Starting her season on the ISU Challenger Series (CS), Pogorilaya took silver at the 2015 Ondrej Nepela Trophy after placing 9th in the short program and first in the free skate. She won the 2015 CS Mordovian Ornament with personal bests in all segments. Competing on the Grand Prix series, Pogorilaya finished 4th behind Elena Radionova at the 2015 Cup of China and 9th at the 2015 NHK Trophy (11th in the short program after falling three times and 4th in the free skate). At the end of December, she won the bronze medal at the 2016 Russian Championships in Yekaterinburg as well as Russia's third spot at Europeans, having placed fourth in the short and third in the free.

In late January 2016, Pogorilaya repeated as the bronze medalist at the European Championships, which were held in Bratislava, Slovakia.[11] At the 2016 World Championships at the end of March in Boston, she was awarded a small silver medal for her placement in the short program. She ranked fourth in the free skate and won the overall bronze medal.
