Career

Voronov is from Moscow and was coached by Rafael Arutunian as a child until his coach moved to the U.S.; Voronov then moved to Saint Petersburg where he was coached by Galina Kashina for two years and then switched to Alexei Urmanov.[4]

Voronov withdrew from the 2005 World Junior Championships after the qualifying round due to injury. He had placed sixth in the qualifying round.[5] Voronov placed fourth in the free skate at the 2008 World Championships and finished 7th overall.

Voronov was assigned to the 2009 Cup of China where he placed third, 2009 Trophée Eric Bompard for the 2009-2010 Season. He won the silver medal the 2010 Russian national championships. He was assigned to Europeans where he placed below expectations and, as a result, Russian national bronze medalist Artem Borodulin was given Russia's second spot (along with Evgeny Plushenko) for the men's event at the Olympics and Worlds. However, Plushenko pulled out of the 2010 World Championships due to injury so Voronov was called up as a late replacement. Voronov would place 14th. This placement, along with Borodulin's withdrawal during the competition, meant Russia would have one men's berth to the 2011 World Championships. At the end of the season, he split with coach Alexei Urmanov and moved back to Moscow to be coached by Nikolai Morozov.[6]

For the 2010-2011 season he was assigned to the 2010 Cup of China and the 2010 Trophée Eric Bompard. He was injured during the short program at Cup of China and withdrew from the event. He also withdrew from Trophee Bompard. He competed at Russian Nationals where he placed 10th in the short program, 3rd in the long, and 4th overall, just 0.27 points off the podium.
