Timeline
Maria Viktorovna Butyrskaya (Мария Викторовна Бутырская, born 28 June 1972) is a Russian retired figure skater.
Maria Butyrskaya was born on 28 June 1972 in Moscow.
Her parents divorced after the birth of her younger brother.
She first showed promise with a victory ahead of veterans Josée Chouinard and Tonya Harding at the 1992 Skate Canada International, with her free skate including five triples, and then placed 5th in her European Championship debut.
At the 1993 World Championships, Butyrskaya did not advance past the qualifying round, which resulted in Russia having no entry in ladies' singles at the 1994 Olympics.
In the 1993–94 season, she finished second behind Olga Markova at the Russian Nationals and 4th behind Markova at that year's Europeans.
Markova thus received Russia's lone berth to the 1994 World Championships.
Butyrskaya regained her Russian national title in the 1994–95 season.
At the 1995 European Championships, she was third after the short program but her long program dropped her to 7th, behind teammates Olga Markova (2nd) and Irina Slutskaya (5th).
She again missed a berth to the World Championships.
Butyrskaya re-emerged as a contender in the 1995–96 season, winning a silver behind Michelle Kwan at the 1995 Nations Cup.
She qualified for the first-ever Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final, where she finished seventh.
She was one of two women to beat Kwan that year at Centennial on Ice, taking silver behind Slutskaya in front of her home fans.
Butyrskaya won her first European medal, a bronze, at the 1996 European Championships.
At the 1996 World Championships in Edmonton, she missed a triple loop late in her free skate and finished 4th, losing the bronze to Slutskaya.
The 1996–97 would see Butyrskaya maintain her status as one of the World's top skaters, but struggle with consistency of her triple lutz, which she failed to land cleanly in any of her long programs of the season.
After finishing 10th at the 1996 Skate America, she rebounded with a silver medal at the 1996 Trophée Lalique, finishing second to Kwan but ahead of rising star Tara Lipinski.
Second in the short program at the Grand Prix Final, she dropped to fourth overall after missing her triple lutz in the free skate.
At the 1997 European Championships, her 9th-ranked short program kept her off the podium despite placing second in the long program.
At the 1997 World Championships in Lausanne, she placed third in the short program but her performance in the free skate dropped her to 5th overall.
Butyrskaya placed fourth at the 1998 Winter Olympics and sixth at the 2002 Winter Olympics.
She won the Russian national title six times.
Butyrskaya won her first European title at the 1998 European Championships.
Ranked fifth in the short program, she completed seven triples in the long program to dethrone two-time defending champion Irina Slutskaya.
She also beat that year's Grand Prix Final silver medalist, Tanja Szewczenko (3rd), who had beaten her twice that season.
Butyrskaya was selected to represent Russia at the 1998 Winter Olympics and finished 4th in Nagano, finishing behind bronze medalist Chen Lu by a narrow margin.
She went on to take her first World medal, bronze, at the 1998 World Championships.
She finished behind silver medalist Slutskaya on a 5–4 split after a late fall at the end of a strong performance.
In the 1998–99 season, Butyrskaya repeated as the European champion.
She took silver behind Uzbekistan's Tatiana Malinina at that year's Grand Prix Final after falling twice in the long program.
She is the 1999 World champion and a three-time European champion — becoming the oldest skater and the first Russian to win the World ladies' title and the oldest skater to win the European ladies' title (2002 at age 29).
As of 2010, he plays in Russia for Khimik's successor team Atlant Moscow Oblast.
They have three children together.
As a child, Butyrskaya was coached by Irina Nifontova for eight years.
After she decided to retire, Butyrskaya had a couple of coaches, one of whom told her she had no talent, and then contacted Vladimir Korolov.
He improved her compulsory figures but they were then dropped from competitions.
After Korolov moved to Greece, Butyrskaya was coached by Viktor Kudriavtsev for several years until he told her that she was strong technically but he could not help her mentally.
Butyrskaya competed for the Soviet Union until its dissolution and then began representing Russia.
