Antonina in action during her semi final at the 2013 World Championships
in Moscow. She won the bronze medal and followed that up with a Gold medal
in the 4x400m relay.
She also won the bronze medal at the 2009 World Championships in the 400m.
At the time her personal best was 49.16 (50.55 indoors).
HOWEVER SOME TIME LATER.
Krivoshapka and her team mates were later stripped of their 2012 Olympic 4x400m
medals after Krivoshapka tested positive for the steroid turinabol.
