She has qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics.

Biography

Gubaydullina was born to a Bashkir father and a Tatar mother.[3] She started swimming in Novy Urengoy at the age of six. When she was thirteen, she participated in the double-event, winning gold in a local tournament.[4] Gubaydullina is a four-times junior and youth European champion, and a world youth silver medalist.[5][6][7] She is a bronze medalist in the mixed event at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics.[8]

The Russian became fourth at the 2015 European Modern Pentathlon Championships, giving her a place at the 2016 Summer Olympics.[9] Although Gubaydullina set a new record in 200 m swimming (2:07.94) at the Olympics,[10] she finished just 15th (following the disqualification of Chen Qian she took the 14th position).[11][12]

Gubaydullina and Belyakov won the mixed event of the 2017 European Modern Pentathlon Championships in Minsk, Belarus.

At the 2020 Summer Olympics held in Tokyo, Japan in 2021, Gubaydullina started off by showing the best result in swimming, setting an Olympic Record (2:07.31).[13] However, she was eliminated in the third stage, after her randomly assigned horse 'Saint Boy' refused to continue jumping, leaving her without a medal at the end, although having the 6th best time in the final stage.[14][15]

She won the 2021 Cup of the President of the Russian Federation (former Kremlin Cup), after winning the fencing, swimming and the final laser run stages.[16]
