Listunova made her international debut at International Gymnix in March 2018 where she placed third in the all-around behind Zoé Allaire-Bourgie of Canada and Asia D'Amato of Italy. During event finals she placed eighth on vault, second on uneven bars behind compatriot Elena Gerasimova, sixth on balance beam, and won gold on floor exercise.[3] In June she competed at the Russian National Championships as an Espoir. She won gold in the all-around, on uneven bars, and on floor exercise. She won silver on vault behind Angelina Kosynkina and won bronze on balance beam behind Yulia Nikolayeva and Sofia Koroleva.[4] In December Listunova competed at the 2018 Voronin Cup where she won silver in the all-around behind Vladislava Urazova. She won silver on floor exercise behind Urazova, bronze on vault behind Urazova and Darya Yassinskaya of Kazakhstan, and placed fourth on uneven bars.[5]

Listunova competed at the 2019 City of Jesolo Trophy. She helped Russia win gold ahead of the United States.[6] In event finals she placed second on vault and first on balance beam and floor exercise.[7] In May she competed at the Russian National Championships where she won silver in the all-around behind Vladislava Urazova.[8] She also qualified three event finals where she won silver on vault, gold on floor exercise, and bronze on balance beam.[9]

In late June Listunova competed at the inaugural Junior World Championships alongside Vladislava Urazova and Elena Gerasimova. Together the team won gold, finishing 2.157 points ahead of second place China. Individually she won gold in the all-around and qualified to the floor exercise, uneven bars, and vault event finals.[10] On the first day of event finals she finished eighth on vault and won silver on uneven bars behind teammate Urazova.[11] On the second day of event finals Listunova won gold on floor exercise and was the only competitor to score above 14.[12]

In July Listunova competed at the 2019 European Youth Olympic Festival alongside Iana Vorona and Irina Komnova.[13] While there she helped Russia win the gold in the team final and individually she qualified first in the all-around.[14] During the all-around final she once again placed first, finishing ahead of Ondine Achampong of Great Britain and Vorona.[15] During event finals she won gold on vault, uneven bars, and floor exercise and finished seventh on balance beam after falling on her wolf turn.

In November Listunova competed at Elite Gym Massilia where she placed second in the all-around, behind of Vorona, first on floor exercise, and fifth on balance beam.[16]

Senior

2021

Listunova turned senior in 2021 and made her senior debut at the Russian National Championships in March. She finished qualifications with a score of 57.566, the highest of the day. During the all-around final she earned a 56.598, the second highest of the day behind Vladislava Urazova; however her two day total was higher and therefore Listunova became the Russian National Champion.[17] Listunova was the only athlete to qualify to all four event finals. She won gold on balance beam and silver on uneven bars (behind Urazova), vault, and floor exercise (behind Angelina Melnikova).[18]

In April it was announced that Listunova would make her senior international debut at the European Championships in Basel alongside Melnikova, Urazova, and Elena Gerasimova.[19] During qualifications Listunova finished second in the all-around behind Melnikova. Due to finishing top 2 amongst individuals who did not help qualify a team or qualify individually to the Olympic Games, Listunova qualified an additional quota for Russia. Listunova also qualified to the floor exercise final.[20] During the all-around final Listunova won the all-around gold medal, placing ahead of Melnikova and Jessica Gadirova. Listunova became only the second woman to have won the all-around at the European championships, a feat only ever achieved by Romania's Nadia Comaneci in 1975. [21][22][23]
