Biography

Saladuha took up athletics at the same club as Sergey Bubka, originally as a sprint hurdler before switching to triple jumping. In 1998 she set a European age-group record of 13.32 meters. Subsequently, she finished fifth at the 2002 World Junior Championships in Athletics. After struggling with injuries for the next two years and briefly retiring from the sport, she made steady progress, finishing fourth at the 2006 European Athletics Championships and winning the gold at the 2007 Summer Universiade with a personal best of 14.79 meters.[2]

At the end of 2008 Saladuha took a year out of competition to start a family, giving birth to a daughter, Diana. She subsequently returned to competition in 2010, winning gold at the European Championships in Barcelona. The following year she set a new personal best at the Diamond League meeting in Eugene, Oregon, where she jumped 14.98 meters, and she then went on to take the gold medal at the 2011 World Championships in Athletics in Daegu.[2]

She won the bronze medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, and was European champion in the women's triple jump in 2010, 2012 and 2014.[3]

Saladukha's personal best jump is 14.99 meters, achieved on 29 June 2012 in Helsinki at the European Championships. She also has a personal best of 6.37 metres in the long jump.

She is married to racing cyclist Denys Kostyuk.[2]

Saladukha took part in the July 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election with the party Servant of the People.[4] She was elected to parliament.[1]
