Vladislav Vladimirovich Larin (Russian: Владислав Владимирович Ларин, IPA: [vlədʲɪˈslaf vlɐˈdʲimʲɪrəvʲɪtɕ ˈlarʲɪn]; born 7 October 1995) is a Russian taekwondo fighter, Olympic, World and European Champion, and fivefold Grand Prix series winner.[2]

Larin initially qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics as an Individual Neutral Athlete (AIN), but the International Olympic Committee did not declare him neutral and he was not invited to the Games as a result.[3][4]

Vladislav Larin was born 7 October 1995 in the village of Kotkozero, Karelia. When he was five, his family moved to Petrozavodsk, the capital of Karelia. He practiced artistic gymnastics before receiving a longtime hand injury at the age of 5, urging him to discontinue. In 2002, he switched to taekwondo, attending and graduating from the Institute for Physical Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Petrozavodsk State University, where he practiced taekwondo.[citation needed]

Personal life

On 16 August 2020, Larin married ninefold Russian poomse taekwondo champion Anastasia. Their wedding took place in Karelia.[5]
