Personal life
Shcherbakova was born on 28 March 2004 in Moscow.[2] She is the middle child of three sisters.
Career
Early career
Shcherbakova began learning to skate in 2007 under Oksana Bulycheva at the Khrustalnyi rink of the Olympic Reserve Sports School no. 37 (later renamed "Sambo 70") in Moscow.[2] She switched to training with Eteri Tutberidze and Sergei Dudakov at the same rink in the 2013-14 season. Shcherbakova is the 2015 Russian younger novice silver medalist, the 2016 Russian novice champion, and the 2017 Russian novice silver medalist.
2017–2018 season
Shcherbakova missed 2017 Russian Junior Championships after breaking her arm, and most of the 2017–18 season, including her planned Junior Grand Prix debut after breaking her leg in training. She placed 13th at the 2018 Russian Junior Championships.
2018–2019 season
Shcherbakova debuted internationally on the Junior Grand Prix circuit in August. She was assigned to events in Slovakia and Canada. At JGP Slovakia, she was ranked first in both the short program and the free skate and won the gold medal by a margin of more than 18 points over the silver medalist, her teammate Anna Tarusina.[3] Her scores at this competition are among the highest scores achieved in an international junior ladies competition after teammate Alexandra Trusova in the short program, and Trusova and teammate Alena Kostornaia in the free program.
At JGP Canada, she was again ranked first in both the short program and the free skate and won the gold medal by a margin of about 5 points over the silver medalist, her teammate Anastasia Tarakanova.[4] With 2 JGP gold medals she has qualified to the 2018–19 Junior Grand Prix Final.
Skating technique
In the second competition of the 2018 Cup of Russia, a qualifying competition to Russian Senior Nationals, Shcherbakova landed two quadruple lutzes in her free program, one in combination with a triple toe loop and the second as a standalone. She is the first skater, male or female, to land two quad lutzes in a single program. However, as the competition she landed them in was not ratified by the ISU, this achievement cannot be recognized internationally. [5] Additionally, Shcherbakova also landed a quadruple toe loop in practice at the event.[6]
