Personal life
Artur Dmitriev Jr. was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia, the son of Tatiana Druchinina, a World champion in rhythmic gymnastics, and Artur Dmitriev, a two-time Olympic champion in pair skating. At around age seven, he moved with his family to the United States and lived there for seven years. His parents divorced in 2006. Dmitriev Jr. has a half-brother, Artiom, from his father's second marriage. He speaks Russian and English.
Career
Dmitriev began skating seriously at about the age of seven or eight in Hackensack, New Jersey. At age 11, he received 280 stitches after his face was cut by another skater's blade in Hackensack. Around 2007, he began working with Alexei Mishin at the Yubileyny Sports Palace in Saint Petersburg.
At the 2010 World Junior Championships, Dmitriev was the only skater to land a quad toe loop in the long program, which he did in combination with a double toe. He rose from 15th after the short program to finish 7th overall. He continued to work on his quads and practiced a quad salchow and loop in May 2010 but was hampered by back problems during the 2010-11 season.
In late 2010, Dmitriev moved to Moscow to train with Elena Vodorezova (Buianova). In the 2012–13 season, he switched to Nikolai Morozov but missed most of the season after breaking two bones, in his knee and foot.
In March 2014, Dmitriev moved back to Saint Petersburg and rejoined Mishin. In the 2014–15 season, he won the silver medal at the International Cup of Nice and bronze at his first ISU Challenger Series (CS) event, the Volvo Open Cup. In October 2015, he won a CS competition, the Ice Challenge, with a total score 6.92 points greater than the silver medalist, Jason Brown. On December 24-27, he finished 10th at the 2016 Russian Championships.
