Personal life

Erokhov was born on 5 September 1999 in Moscow.[1] As of April 2018, he is a student at Moscow's Institute for Physiculture.[2]

Career

Early career

Erokhov began learning to skate in 2003.[1] Ilia Klimkin coached him at Moscow's CSKA Sports School until 2011; Erokhov then transferred to Sambo 70 School, also in Moscow, and began to be coached by Eteri Tutberidze and Sergei Dudakov.[3]

He placed 12th at the 2016 Russian Junior Championships.

2016–2017 season

Erokhov's international debut came in September 2016 at a 2016–17 ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) competition in Yokohama, Japan, where he won the bronze medal. Due to an injury, he withdrew from his second JGP assignment, in Germany, following the short program.

Erokhov finished 10th competing on the senior level at the 2017 Russian Championships in December 2016 and 5th at the junior event in February 2017.

2017–2018 season

Erokhov won his first international title in September at the 2017 JGP event in Minsk, Belarus. Ranked first in both segments, he outscored the silver medalist, Andrew Torgashev, by more than 20 points.[4] He attained his personal best total score, 232.79 points, at that competition. After winning gold in Gdańsk, Poland, he qualified to the JGP Final in Nagoya, Japan, where he placed 5th.

At the 2018 Russian Championships, Erokhov placed 8th at the senior event in December 2017 and took gold at the junior event in January 2018.
