Yana Sergeyevna Romanova (Russian: Яна Сергеевна Романова; born 11 May 1983) is a retired Russian biathlete. She competed in various events at the 2010 and 2014 Winter Olympics and won a silver medal in the 4×6 km relay in 2014. Her medal was later annulled for doping violations.
Romanova was awarded the Medal of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" I class in 2014. In May 2015, she retired from competitions.[2] In April 2016, she became a candidate to participate in the primaries of the United Russia party in the Omsk Oblast for the elections to the State Duma.[3]
In December 2016, the International Biathlon Union provisionally suspended her for doping violations during the 2014 Winter Olympics, along with Olga Vilukhina.[4] On 27 November 2017, the International Olympic Committee disqualified Vilukhina and Romanova, banned them for life from the Olympics, and stripped them of their Olympic medals.[5] On 24 September 2020, Romanova and Vilukhina's disqualifications in the individual races were overturned by the CAS, and their medals were restored.[6]
