In June 2005, Bovina sustained a right shoulder injury, which forced her to withdraw from all tournaments through the end of the year. She pulled out of all events she had entered in early 2006, and for some time, she was unranked in both singles and doubles. She returned to the WTA Tour at the Kremlin Cup in October 2006.
She won three career singles titles, including the Tier II Pilot Pen Tennis Open. She was a finalist in three singles tournaments, and won five career doubles titles, including the Pan Pacific Open (with Rennae Stubbs), and the Swisscom Challenge in Zurich with Justine Henin-Hardenne. In addition, she won the 2004 Australian Open mixed doubles title with Nenad Zimonjić, and was the runner-up in the 2002 French Open mixed doubles tournament. She also was on the victorious 2005 Russian Fed Cup squad and was also on the team from 2001 to 2003.
In 2017, Bovina returned to tennis after a four-year hiatus. She competed in some ITF events during 2017 and the following year. [1]
