MOTHER'S ADVICE
Her mother Elena Maluka [Rublevska] competed in modern pentathlon at the four editions of the Olympic Games to take place between 2000 and 2012, winning a silver medal at Athens 2004. "[My mother] often helps with advice on how to do the right thing, how to do things in an easier way, to whom to pay more attention, to whom less. It definitely helps and motivates me. I certainly listen to her as a mother and not as an athlete." (sportlandmagazine.com, 15 Aug 2018)
