Career edit

Early years edit

Feigin started learning to skate in 2009.[1] She began appearing internationally for Bulgaria in 2010. From November 2013 through February 2016, she competed in the advanced novice ranks.[2]

Her ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut came in August 2016. In March, she competed at the 2017 World Junior Championships in Taipei, Taiwan. She was ranked 25th in the short program and missed the cutoff for the free skate.

Feigin qualified to the final segment at the 2018 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria; she finished fifteenth overall after placing seventeenth in the short program and fifteenth in the free skate.

2018–2019 season edit

Feigin began her season on the JGP series, placing eleventh in Slovakia and eighth in Canada. Making her senior international debut, she won gold at the Crystal Skate of Romania in October and at the Denkova-Staviski Cup in November.

Feigin made her debut at a senior ISU championship at the 2019 European Championships, where she placed eleventh. She placed twenty-second at the 2019 World Junior Championships and then made her senior World Championship debut in Saitama, where she placed seventeenth.

2019–2020 season edit

Feigin competed and won medals in several minor senior international events and placed fourth at the 2019 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, narrowly missing the podium. She was seventeenth at the 2020 European Championships.[3] She had been assigned to compete at the World Championships in Montreal, but those were cancelled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.[4]

2020–2021 season edit

With the pandemic continuing to limit international travel, Feigin competed at a European-only 2020 CS Budapest Trophy, winning the bronze medal, her first on the Challenger series. After winning the Bulgarian national title again, she placed fourth at the 2021 Tallink Hotels Cup. Feigin placed seventeenth at the 2021 World Championships in Stockholm.[5] This result qualified a ladies' berth for Bulgaria at the 2022 Winter Olympics.[6]

2021–2022 season edit

In her only event of the fall season, Feigin finished in fifth at the 2021 CS Denis Ten Memorial Challenge before coming twentieth at the 2022 European Championships to start the new year.[7]

Named to the Bulgarian team for the 2022 Winter Olympics, Feigin placed twenty-second in the short program of the women's event, qualifying for the free skate.[8] She dropped one place in the free skate, finishing twenty-third.[9] Feigin was twenty-eighth at the 2022 World Championships to end the season.[7]

2022–2023 season edit

Feigin began the season at the 2022 CS Denis Ten Memorial Challenge, coming in fourth, before winning gold at the 2022 Denkova-Staviski Cup and winning her fifth Bulgarian national title. She finished twelfth at the 2023 Winter World University Games, sixteenth at the 2023 European Championships, and twenty-fourth at the 2023 World Championships.[7]
