Anna Chicherova

Anna Vladimirovna Chicherova, born on 22 July 1982, is a Russian-Armenian high jumper. She won the gold medal at the 2012 London Olympics and the world title in 2011, was runner-up at the World Championships in 2007 and 2013 and took bronze in 2015. A bronze medal from the 2008 Olympics was taken from her in 2016 after a retest of her sample found a banned substance, and the medal was reallocated to Chaunte Lowe. She later returned to competition, and in early 2019 she jumped 2.01 metres indoors twice, equalling the masters W35 world record, although indoor marks cannot be ratified as records.
