After placing 21st in the women’s event at the World Figure Skating Championships in Boston (USA), Alexandra Feigin has earned a quota for next year’s Winter Olympics in Italy.

Alexandra Feigin is the first Bulgarian figure skater to compete in two different Olympics, after making her debut in Beijing in 2022 and placing 24th.

Before her, in the women’s individual competition at the biggest sports forum, only Petya Gavazova in Calgary 1988, the late Victoria Dimitrova in Albertville 1992 and Tsvetelina Abrasheva in Lillehammer 1994, had represented Bulgaria.
