She is a five-time Olympic champion, thirteen-time world champion, seven-time European champion in synchronized swimming. Davydova\u2019s specialty was the duet event and she is the only swimmer in history to repeat as an Olympic duet champion. Her routines were on the cutting edge of choreography, as well as being technically superior. In 2010, FINA declared her the best synchronized swimmer of the XXI century and in 2012 she was standard bearer of the Russian Olympic team at the closing ceremony of the Games in London.<\/p>\n<p>Anastasia\u2019s first sport was figure skating. Then she saw artistic gymnastics on TV and she left the ice for the ribbon and mat, but not for long. At the age of six, her mother took her for swim lessons where she was exposed to synchronized swimming. She loved the sport so much that she even gave up her favorite foods: chips, cakes and chocolates. You see, she was a little chubby and the coach put her on a trial period to see if she would lose weight. While she really wanted the \u201cbad food,\u201d she loved synchronized swimming more and the rest, as they say, is history.<\/p>\n<p>In a sport that usually forces athletes to be patient as they build international reputations, Davydova did not have to wait very long to move to the top. At age 15, she was paired with <strong>Anastasia Ermakova<\/strong> (ISHOF 2015). Because they were very successful at the junior level, judges were familiar with them by the time they became seniors. At their first major senior international event, they placed second in duet at the 2001 FINA World Championships in Fukuoka, Japan. The next year they performed a nearly flawless routine, including five perfect\u00a010s in the final free program, to win the European Championships.<\/p>\n<p>At the 2003 World Championships in Barcelona, Davydova and Ermakova won their first senior world duet title; the Russian team was also victorious. Davydova won team and duet at the Olympic qualifying tournament in Athens in April 2004 and the European Championships in Madrid in May 2004. At the Olympic Games in Athens, Davydova and Ermakova won gold with an impeccable routine, scoring a perfect 50 for artistic impression (receiving a score of ten from all five judges). In the team event, they also won gold, even after a music malfunction required them repeat their performance.<\/p>\n<p>Leading up to the Beijing Games, Davydova, Ermakova and the Russians were unbeatable, winning every event they entered. At Beijing, the pair again won duet gold, earning a combined 99.251 and all perfect 10s for technical merit. The Russian team also won, leaving Ermakova and Davydova with a record four gold synchro medals.<\/p>\n<p>After Ermakova retired, Davydova began training with <strong>Svetlana Romashina<\/strong>. But after the pair won at the 2011 FINA World Championships, Davydova stepped aside in favor of <strong>Natalia Ishchenko<\/strong> to focus on the team event, her studies at the Moscow Institute of Economics, Politics, and Law and on coaching youth at her local club. When She announced her retirement after winning gold in the team event at the 2012 Olympic Games, she also announced that she would turn her energy to coaching. She wanted to be part of keeping the Russians on top. At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Russia won both gold medals.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_245325\" style=\"width: 528px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-245325\" data-attachment-id=\"245325\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/russian-synchro-swimmer-anastasia-davydova-featured-in-ishof-class-of-2017-inductees\/anastasia-davydova-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1600,1849\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"anastasia-davydova (1)\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;anastasia-davydova (1)&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: ISHOF&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1-886x1024.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-245325\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1-886x1024.jpg\" alt=\"anastasia-davydova (1)\" width=\"518\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1-886x1024.jpg 886w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1-533x616.jpg 533w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1-173x200.jpg 173w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/anastasia-davydova-1.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-245325\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: ISHOF<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Today, Davydova is the director of the Olympic Synchronized Swimming Center, she is a Cavalier of three Russian state orders, is vice- president of the Russian Olympic Committee, Chairman of the Council of Assistance to the Russian Olympic Committee and a member of the Executive Committee of the Russian Olympic Committee.
