Nikita Yurievich Konovalov (Russian: Никита Юрьевич Коновалов; born 27 July 1988) is a Russian swimmer who has won more than ten medals at the European and world championships since 2009.[2]

Konovalov was addicted to computer games, and because of that around 2006 he was skipping school and training sessions for many months. He has a tattoo covering his chest and arms, which is dedicated to Illidan Stormrage, a character in the Warcraft series of video games.[2]
