Olga Romanovna Mikutina (Ukrainian: Ольга Романівна Мікутіна; born 6 October 2003) is a Ukrainian-Austrian figure skater who competes for Austria.
She began her skating career competing for her native Ukraine and, by age 12, was already a three-time Ukrainian youth national champion.
[1] When she was 12, her parents decided that she needed better training conditions than were available in Ukraine and were advised to seek out coach Elena Romanova in Feldkirch, Austria.
At the event in March, Mikutina ranked twentieth in the short program and qualified for the free skate, where she placed fifteenth, which lifted her to eighteenth overall.
[5] In January, Mikutina came in fourth place at the EduSport Trophy in Bucharest and was assigned to the 2020 European Championships held in Graz, Austria.
After winning her second consecutive national title, she competed at the 2021 Tallink Hotels Cup, taking the silver medal behind Eva-Lotta Kiibus.
[14] Suffering from right knee inflammation, Mikutina's training was hindered over the summer, and as a result, she withdrew from the 2021 CS Denis Ten Memorial Challenge and what was to be her first Grand Prix assignment, the 2021 NHK Trophy.
[15] Mikutina failed to defend her national title, taking the silver medal behind Stefanie Pesendorfer, but was still assigned to the Austrian Olympic team and the European Championships, finishing fifteenth at the latter in January.
[17] Days after the Olympics concluded, Vladimir Putin ordered an invasion of Ukraine, as a result of which the International Skating Union banned all Russian and Belarusian skaters from competing at the 2022 World Championships.
[5] In October 2023, it was announced that Mikutina had switched training locations from Feldkirch, Austria to Montclair, New Jersey and that Galit Chait, Alexei Bychenko, and Evgeni Krasnopolski had joined her coaching team.
Assigned to compete on the 2024–25 Grand Prix series, she finished ninth at 2024 Skate America and eighth at the 2024 NHK Trophy.
[5] She was subsequently assigned to compete at the 2025 European Championships; however, she withdrew before the event due to health problems and was replaced by Flora Marie Schaller.
