Aleksandr Alekseyevich Petrovskiy (also Alexander Petrovskiy, Russian: Александр Алексеевич Петровский; born March 3, 1989 in Tashkent, Uzbek SSR) is a Russian professional track cyclist.[1] He shared gold medals with Evgeny Kovalev in men's madison at the 2007 UCI Track Cycling Junior World Championships in Aguascalientes, Mexico, and later represented his nation Russia at the 2008 Summer Olympics. During his sporting career, Petrovskiy also raced for the under-23 division of Team Katusha–Alpecin Pro Cycling.[2]

Petrovskiy qualified for the Russian squad in the men's team pursuit at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing based on the nation's selection process from the UCI Track World Rankings. He delivered the Russian foursome of Alexei Markov, Alexander Serov, and Nikolay Trusov an eighth-place time of 4:06.518 in the prelims before his team was later relegated and overlapped to the Brits (led by Olympic time trial champion Bradley Wiggins) in the fourth match round.[3][4][5]
