Career
[edit]Early years
[edit]Golovishnikov began learning to skate in 1998.[2] Early in his career, he represented Russia with Ludmila Sosnitskaia. Their partnership started in 2012 and lasted seven seasons. They made their junior international debut in November 2012, at the Grand Prize SNP in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia. Their senior international debut came in October 2014, at the Ice Star in Minsk, Belarus.
Sosnitskaia and Golovishnikov competed at five ISU Challenger Series events. In October 2015, the duo won bronze at the 2015 CS Denkova-Staviski Cup in Sofia, Bulgaria. They appeared at five senior Russian national championships, placing seventh twice and ninth three times.
They trained in Moscow, coached by Svetlana Alekseeva, Elena Kustarova, and Olga Riabinina.[1] Their partnership ended following the 2018–19 season.[3]

The two decided to train in Toruń, under Sylwia Nowak-Trębacka, and to represent Poland. In December 2020, they became the Polish national silver medalists at the Four Nationals in Cieszyn. They had no appearances at ISU events in their first season together.
