She won two gold medals and a bronze medal in the 2009 Short Track Speed Skating World Cup season. Legislation had to be passed to amend the Australian Citizenship Act so that Borodulina would receive citizenship in time to compete at the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada after missing the cut-off mark by 18 days. Australian Immigration Minister Chris Evans said this amendment benefited a number of athletes who had moved to Australia.
