Natalya Mikhaylovna Shubenkova (Russian: Наталья Михайловна Шубенкова; born 25 September 1957)[1] is a Russian former Soviet heptathlete.[3] As of 2019, she ranks as the 12th highest all-time female scorer in the heptathlon, based on a score of 6859 she achieved in 1984.[4] That ended up being the second highest score in 1984, bested only by Sabine John, and stood as the Soviet record for six years. She was unable to participate in the 1984 Olympics due to the 1984 Summer Olympics boycott.[5]
