In September 2014 European athletics announced that their panel of experts had judged the Europeans who should be the nominees for the Golden Tracks awarded to the best European male and female Rising Stars in 2014.[3] Anatoliy Ryapolov was one of the nominees alongside the likes of Adam Gemili, Wilhem Belocian and Konrad Bukowiecki. Most well known female nominees were Mariya Kuchina and Katarina Johnson-Thompson. At the end it was Gemili and Kuchina who were rewarded with the European Athletics Rising Star at the Golden Tracks ceremony in Baku.[4]
