Sporting relatives:

His mother Natalya Shubenkova represented the Soviet Union in athletics and placed fourth in heptathlon at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul. (teamrussia.pro, 12 Aug 2018; SportsDeskOnline, 08 May 2020)

In June 2019 he sustained shoulder, knee and hand injuries in a fall after being accidentally tripped by Jamaican athlete Omar McLeod near the finish line of the 110m hurdles at the Diamond League meet in Rabat, Morocco.

He began training in hurdles at age 12 in Barnaul, Russian Federation. (altaisport.ru, 06 Dec 2019; teamrussia.pro, 12 Aug 2018)

He tried several sports, including swimming, boxing, karate, ice hockey and football, before deciding to follow his mother into athletics. "It was clear I was not a team player. I am an individualist rather than an egoist. Moreover, I am motivated. And in a team, it can be that someone wants to win while someone else doesn't care. I love when the result depends only on me." (teamrussia.pro, 12 Aug 2018; vogue.ru, 09 Aug 2013)

In 2018 he received the Order for Merits to the Fatherland [second class] in the Russian Federation. (kremlin.ru, 01 Feb 2018)
