Evgeniya Kanaeva-musatova

Young gymnast Evgenia Kanaeva is a two-time Olympic champion in rhythmic gymnastics and a three-time world champion in all-around. In 2009 she received the title of Honored Master of Sports of Russia.

Evgenia Kanaeva was born on April 2, 1990 in the distant northern city of Omsk. Zhenya's mom is a famous athlete, master of sports in rhythmic gymnastics Svetlana Kanaeva. Knowing what difficulties the girl will face on the way to fame, she did not send her daughter to a sports school. Grandmother intervened in the fate of Evgenia. Seeing the girl's desire to become a gymnast, she insisted that the child be given a chance, and when she was 6 years old, she herself took her granddaughter to rhythmic gymnastics classes.

Young Zhenya showed interest in sports and began intensive training. She lingered for a long time after classes, mastering complex elements. The grandmother supported the girl and waited in the corridor for several hours so that she would not return home late at night alone.

Evgenia Kanaeva once recalled an interesting fact from her biography in an interview. As a child, she was scoffed at because of her plumpness and clubfoot, which is funny, because with a height of 172 cm, the girl weighs 42 kg, and sports records speak for themselves.

When Evgenia turned 12, she had a chance to show her skills. The girl was lucky to go to the capital for a sports training camp. In Moscow, Amina Zaripova liked the young athlete and soon received an invitation to study at the school of the Olympic reserve.

The girl accepted the offer and began to study under the strict guidance of Vera Shtelbaums. Vera Shtelbaums has a rich coaching experience, so she was able to choose the right exercises for Evgenia's performances, which later led the girl to numerous victories.

2003 was a turning point in the career of the young athlete. Evgenia went to win the Japanese championship and became the best among juniors. The victory allowed the girl to get to Novogorsk and start serious training with the Russian rhythmic gymnastics team. There, the girl's sports talent was revealed to the maximum.

At the beginning of Yevgenia Kanaeva's sports career, the reason why her mother did not give her child to the sport in childhood came to light: severe competition did not allow the athlete to get into the national team.

In 2004, Alina Kabaeva and Irina Chashchina brought Olympic gold to the national team. Vera Sesina and Olga Kapranova followed them up the career ladder. But in 2007, Kabaeva was suddenly injured. I had to urgently look for a replacement, and Evgenia Kanaeva went to the European Championship in Baku. They made big bets on the girl, and she did not let the team down.

The athlete appeared in a team with Sesina and Kapranova and performed all the elements cleanly. This brought the girls a victory and a long-awaited gold medal. In a singles performance with a ribbon, Evgenia also won. Then she was taken to a more serious competition - the world championship. And here the athlete showed herself by winning gold.

The Olympics are a competition in which the program must be thought out to the smallest detail. In 2008, performing with a tape to the music of "Moscow Nights", Evgenia Kanaeva did not take a prize. 

Attention was riveted to Sesina and Kapranova, and such competition morally pressed on the girl. But by April, she firmly pulled herself together and won several stages of the Grand Prix and the World Cup. At this triumphant moment, the girl became the absolute leader and champion of Russia.

At the European Championships, Evgenia joined the Russian national team and became the European champion. It became clear that the athlete no longer had competitors, and she would go to the Olympic Games. In the summer of 2012, the girl went to defend the honor of the country in Beijing with Olga Kapranova.

At that time, Evgenia Kanaeva became the youngest winner. The flexible and plastic athlete did not make almost any mistake. And in 2012, at the London Olympics, she proved her talent to the jury by becoming a two-time champion.

Evgenia Kanaeva is called the legend of rhythmic gymnastics, but the girl herself is the embodiment of modesty. She did not flaunt and carefully guarded her privacy. Therefore, the sudden news that Evgenia is being married to hockey player Igor Muskatov caught the fans of the athlete by surprise. The gorgeous wedding took place in June 2013. The hosts at the wedding were Olga Shelest and Anton Komolov.

The couple's acquaintance cannot be called romantic. They first saw each other in an emergency room a year before the London Olympic Games. Then both received minor injuries. Immediately after the Summer Olympics, Igor made an official marriage proposal to Zhenya. A year after the wedding, the couple had a son, who was named Vladimir.

Before they met, Zhenya's husband became famous for his drunken antics. Therefore, sometimes you can see information about divorce on the Internet. However, this fact has never been confirmed. Friends of the couple noticed that Igor has changed a lot after meeting Eugenia, and they do not intend to divorce.

In 2017, in an interview with a sports newspaper, Yevgenia Kanaeva said that after the Olympics, the coaches were waiting for the girl to return to sports. But training and injuries exhausted the athlete so much that she decided to devote herself to coaching. The young girl turned into a patient mentor and now she is happy to bring up young athletes of the Russian national team.

Five years ago Evgeniya graduated from the Siberian State University of Physical Education and Sports.

Evgenia Kanaeva maintains a microblogging on Instagram, where numerous fans of the girl can see personal photos, as well as videos from old performances of their favorite gymnast.
