Career

She debuted at World Cup on December 1, 2007, in Finnish Kuusamo where she 61st in classical sprint. But that season she had some good results finishing thrice in Top-30 and earning her first World Cup points. As of February 2018, Antsybor's best World Cup finish was 19th at a 7.6 km event in Liberec, Czech Republic, on December 16, 2008.

At the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, she finished 14th in the 4 x 5 km relay, 15th in the team sprint, and 37th in the 10 km events. Antsybor also competed in the 7.5 km + 7.5 km double pursuit event, but did not finish.

She competed at 2014 Winter Olympics in Russian Sochi where she was 47th in skiathlon, 35th in mass start, 12th in relay and 34th in sprint. She also should have competed in team sprint but they didn't start presumably due to doping accusations. During Games she was found guilty of using doping. According to Antsybor, she "underwent in 2004 a surgery on thyroid and cardiologist prescribed her a medicine called "Predukal". Due to changes some of its components became illegal since January 1, 2014".^[1] All sanctions against her were lifted.

Her best finish at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships was 12th twice in the 4 x 5 km relay (2007, 2009) while her best individual finish was 31st in the 30 km event at Liberec in 2009.
