Privivkova Lyudmila is one of the most successful curling women in Russia. Plus, for some time it was considered the best athlete of the continent.
early years
Privivkova Lyudmila Andreevna was born in the capital of the Soviet Union in 1986. In early childhood, she was engaged only in gymnastics. The little girl dreamed that one day she could become a professional athlete. Already at the age of twelve, Luda learns that there is such an unusual sport as curling. She becomes interested, and she decides to go to training. As it turns out later, the young girl really had talent, and now she is fully committed to a new hobby. Already at the age of fifteen, Lyudmila Andreevna Privivkova became a member of the Russian team. At first, she will protect the colors of the youth, and this will last seven years. In addition to speaking for the second team of the country, the girl will regularly play for the main team. Already in 2006, she became the world champion among those who are not yet twenty-three years old. After this tournament, they begin to talk about the athlete as a rising star in Eastern Europe. That is how the career of an athlete named Privivkova Lyudmila Andreevna began. Photos of that period occupy a special place in the Russian album.
The main stage of a career
The debut in the main team came at a time when the curling girl was only sixteen. Four years after this event, she will be able to win the adult championship of Europe. 2006 will be unusually successful for her, because victories will be both at the youth level and at the highest.
For all the time, the athlete Lyudmila Andreevna Privivkova will take part in the Winter Olympic Games twice and will go to the Universiade twice. Separately, it is worth noting that she performed nine times at the European Championships, as well as eleven times - at the world championships.
As mentioned above, she will win her first gold in 2006. The championship will be held in Switzerland. And in 2011 will become the bronze medalist of Europe. Competitions will be held in Moscow, and Luda will regard third place as a defeat. In 2012, he will be able to win gold at the championship of the continent, which will be held in Sweden. Unfortunately, the curling girl does not have more awards at the international level.
Club performances
In addition to successfully participating in the national team, Lyudmila Andreevna Privivkova achieved considerable success during the game for the club. Since 1998, she has been playing for various teams that belong to the Moskvich sports club. During this time, she managed to win the national championship three times, six times the silver of the championship and once became the owner of bronze.
Leaving the Russian team
Lyudmila completed her career in the main team of the country in 2015. For a long time no one could understand what this step was connected with, because her age was the most suitable for achieving high results. After a certain period of time, information will appear on why Livmila Andreevna Privivkova decided to end her career in the national team. The fact is that the national team coach said that she should give up permanent work and devote herself to curling. As the girl noted, she had no choice. In the end, she decided that she would not leave work. This decision shocked her fans, but the athlete is not going to change him. Perhaps something will change after Igor Belanov leaves the team , which forced Privivkov to make such a decision.
Personal life and life outside of sports
Given the fact that the girl continues to play for the club, she spends very little time at home. As a rule, most of the training takes place abroad. As for relations with the opposite sex, the curling girl does not like to talk about it much. She is sure that she has not yet reached her maximum in sports, and therefore it is too early to think about how to arrange her personal life.
The main hobby of Lyudmila Andreevna Privivkova is foreign cars. Thanks to the high fees, she was able to purchase a new car of foreign production and today she happily drives it.
After another of the tournaments, the curling woman was recognized as one of the most beautiful girls in Europe. It is worth noting that the athlete herself is well aware that she is pretty pretty. The fact is that the girl more than once became a model for erotic magazines.
Other rewards
Despite the fact that Luda has not reached its maximum, she is considered the best curling player of the post-Soviet space. Of the state awards, she has so far been awarded only the title of Honored Master of Sports. The athlete is sure that she will still have the opportunity to return to big sport, make up for lost time and show everyone what she is capable of.
Undoubtedly, Lyudmila Andreevna Privivkova will go down in the history of Russian curling.
