In the 69 kg category, Evstyukhina won the silver medal at the 2005 Junior World Championships, and the gold medal at the 2006 Junior World Championships.

She also initially was awarded the bronze medal in the 75 kg category at the 2008 Summer Olympics, with a total of 264 kg. She competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics, but failed to snatch the initial weight.
On 31 August 2016, the International Olympic Committee confirmed that Evstyukhina had been disqualified from the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Reanalysis of Evstyukhina's samples from Beijing 2008 resulted in a positive test for the prohibited substances dehydrochlormethyltestosterone (turinabol) and EPO. As a result, her results were expunged, the athlete was disqualified and her bronze medal removed. The fate of her other medals following the 2008 positive sample is to be decided by the IWF.
