Career

Kops began learning to skate in 2004.[1] In 2016, she teamed up with Artem Tsoglin to compete for Israel in pair skating. The two made their international debut in September 2016, placing 9th at the ISU Junior Grand Prix in Russia. In March, the pair finished eleventh at the 2017 World Junior Championships in Taipei, Taiwan.[3]

Kops/Tsoglin placed sixteenth at the 2018 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria. They were named in Israel's team for the 2019 European Championships in Minsk, Belarus.

After the end of her partnership with Tsoglin, Kops took some time away from the sport, but announced in the summer of 2021 that she had formed a new partnership with Evgeni Krasnopolski.[4] After three months' preparation, they competed at the 2021 CS Nebelhorn Trophy to attempt to qualify a berth for Israel at the 2022 Winter Olympics. Seventh in the short program, they were fourth in the free skate and rose to fifth overall, sufficient to qualify the third of three available pairs spots.[5]
