About Aleksandr Selevko
Born 2001. Aleksandr Selevko is an Estonian figure skater.
Aleksandr Selevko (born 23 May 2001) is an Estonian figure skater. He is the 2024 European silver medalist, the 2025 Skate Canada International silver medalist, an eight-time ISU Challenger Series medalist, the 2019 Nordics bronze medalist, and a four-time Estonian national champion (2020–22, 2026).
Selevko is the first Estonian skater to win a medal at a senior international championship and the first Estonian men's skater to win a medal at an ISU Grand Prix.
He represented Estonia at the 2022 Winter Olympics and the 2026 Winter Olympics.
Personal life Selevko was born on May 23, 2001 in Jõgeva, Estonia. His mother Galina is an accountant, and his father Anatoli is a computer programmer. Selevko's younger brother, Mihhail, also represents Estonia internationally in figure skating. He opened the season by competing on the 2025–26 ISU Challenger Series, winning the silver medal at the 2025 CS Cranberry Cup International and finishing ninth at the 2025 CS Trialeti Trophy. Following the event, Selevko was named to the 2026 Winter Olympic team. On 10 February, Selevko competed in the short program segment at the 2026 Winter Olympics where he fell on the first part of his planned triple Lutz combination, placing eighteenth in that segment. "I was happy with the first two elements and tried to recover in the spin after the two jumps, and I think I was definitely fine. I mean, it was a stupid mistake on the combination that cost me a lot of points, but yeah," he said following his performance. "[It's] very nice, of course, to be able to share this experience [with my girlfriend (Emily Chan)]. Of course, right now I’m more focused on the competition, but after Friday I can really support her."
Two days later, Selevko placed sixteenth in the free skate after receiving a double downgrade on a triple Lutz, popping a planned triple Salchow into a double, and losing levels on all three of his spins. When asked about how he felt about his performance, he said, "It's hard for me to explain. I think maybe I lost my focus a little bit in the short program, and I made that mistake again. That's really sad at the end of the program. I made those awkward mistakes in the spin as well, and I've never had that problem before... But I'm really happy with the beginning of the program, two quads, two triple axels. I still have some time to work before Worlds."
The following month, Selevko placed sixth at the 2026 World Figure Skating Championships after finishing third in this short program and sixth in the free skate. He earned all-new personal best scores in his fourth outing at this event, and helped secure two spots for Estonia in the next year's World Championships. "I am really, really happy with my performance today," he said after the free skate. "Even if I wouldn’t be in the top 8 or top 10, I would still be really happy because I delivered really good programs."
2026–27 season Selevko opened the season by winning the 2026 CS Cranberry Cup International.
