Kuzmina was already extremely successful in the junior area. At the Junior World Championships in Ridnaun in 2002 , she won a first medal, silver with the Russian relay. A year later, in Kościelisko , she won relay gold and silver in singles and in the pursuit. In 2004 she won the relay silver again in Haute-Maurienne , and in 2005 she won relay gold and bronze in the sprint in Kontiolahti . In 2004 she started at the Junior European Championships in Minsk . Here she won gold with the relay and silver behind Krystyna Pałka in the pursuit. The following year she started a second time at a junior European championship. In Novosibirsk she won silver in the sprint and gold in the individual after Anna Bulygina .
In 2005 Kuzmina made her debut in the European Cup in Obertilliach . She was seventh in the singles. She won a sprint race in Obertilliach. At the beginning of 2006 she made her debut in the Biathlon World Cup in Oberhof . In the sprint she was 63rd, in the subsequent pursuit 37th. The next season she won her first World Cup points in Östersund as 13th and achieved her best ever World Cup result - but she ended the season prematurely after the second World Cup station in Hochfilzen because she was her first Child expected.
World Cup medals and first Olympic victory (2008 to 2011)
During the break, Kuzmina changed associations and has been playing for Slovakia ever since. The 2009 biathlon world championships in Pyeongchang were particularly successful in their first season for their new country . There she surprisingly won the silver medal in the mass start behind Olga Saizewa . Before that, she had achieved very good results with ranks 29 in the individual, seven in the sprint - also her first top ten placement in a World Cup race - and 17 in the pursuit race. The European biathlon championship , which began a week later in Ufa , began no less successfully . Kuzmina won the sprint and pursuit titles.
At the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver , she won the gold medal in the sprint and silver in the pursuit. At the same time it was her first World Cup victory and the first gold for Slovakia at the Winter Olympics, the Slovak Ondrej Nepela won gold in Czechoslovakian colors at the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo. The following season she won the sprint in Hochfilzen and was often in the top ten. After she skipped the stations in Presque Isle and Fort Kent , she ran in the first individual competition of the Biathlon World Championships 2011 in Khanty-Mansiysk in the sprint to third place.
World Cup successes and second Olympic victory (2012 to 2014)
In the two following seasons 2011/12 and 2012/13 Kuzmina stabilized in the world elite. She regularly reached the top ranks and was represented in the overall World Cup top 10. However, she could not win any more World Cup medals.
At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi , she won her second gold medal in the sprint and two more races at the end of the World Cup in Oslo. At the end of the season, she started from April 4 to 7, 2014 in the Arctic Circle Race , a 160 km long distance race on Greenland, and finished second behind Niviaq Chemnitz Berthelsen .
Comeback, most successful season and third Olympic victory (2016 to 2018)

She did not contest her first race at an IBU Cup until March 2016, and in December of the same year she made her comeback in the World Cup at the Pokljuka , where she finished sixth in the first race. However, she did not contest the entire 2016/17 season , which was less successful overall with 40th place in the overall World Cup.
In December 2017, Anastasiya Kuzmina won her first World Cup race in Hochfilzen in over three years. At the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang , she won two silver medals, in singles and in pursuit, as well as her third gold medal at the mass start Olympics. Overall, the 2017/18 season was the most successful of her career , just three points behind the winner Kaisa Mäkäräinen , with five victories, winning the small crystal balls for the sprint and pursuit disciplines and second place in the overall World Cup .
First world title and end of career (2019)
