Biography
Biography Timeline
Following her world championships win, she was considered a favorite to win the Olympic title at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. However, she was barred from competing when the CAS upheld their decision to ban the Russian Track and Field Federation from the Games for systematic doping. At a domestic competition she jumped a height of 2.00 m—a height that would’ve easily won gold in Rio. In April 2017, her application to compete as a neutral athlete until Russia is reinstated was accepted; this allows Lasitskene to resume competition despite the Federation’s ban. Her first competition back was the third Diamond League in the series at Eugene. She won the women’s high jump with a personal best and world leading height of 2.03 m.
She improved to 2.04 m on 11 June 2017 in Hengelo. On 6 July 2017 she set a new personal best at the Diamond League in Lausanne with a height of 2.06 m, a Diamond League record. She followed up her strong performances in the Diamond League competitions by defending her world title later in London on 12 August 2017 with a height of 2.03 m.
Russian sports journalist and Eurosport commentator of Lithuanian descent Vladas “Tashev” Lasitskas married Mariya on 17 March 2017. She then took her husband’s family name.
From 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2018 Lasitskene won 45 competitions in a row. On 13 July 2018, the streak breaking was interrupted in Rabat, one of the IAAF Diamond League meetings, where she placed third.
