Mariya Dmitriyenko (Kazakh: Marııa Dmıtrıenko; Russian: Мария Дмитриенко, romanizedMarija Dmitrijenko, born 24 March 1988) is a Kazakh sports shooter. She competed in the women's trap event at the 2016 Summer Olympics.[1]

In March 2012, she won the Amir of Kuwait International Shooting Grand Prix, but at the award ceremony, the parody national anthem from the film Borat was mistakenly played instead of the real Kazakh national anthem. The team complained, and the award ceremony was restaged. The incident apparently resulted from the wrong song being downloaded from the Internet.[2][3]
