In 2011, Sergeeva traveled with members of the Russian group in Christchurch, New Zealand to take part for the IPC Athletics World Championships, which included three sprinting events, as well as javelin. Since there was no T37 javelin competition the athlete was forced to compete in the T38 category for athletes considered to be more motor-controlled. She was eighth in the final standings. In the sprints, she placed seventh in the 100m T37 however in the 200m race she finished second with 31.02s to claim silver the first major competitive win. In the same event, she also participated in the women’s 4x 100m relay in the category T35-38. The Russian team placed second and gave Sergeeva her second gold medal of the championships.

A year later Sergeeva was part of the Russian team at the 2012 IPC Athletics European Championships in Stadskanaal. She medaled in one event, the women’s 4 x 100 metres relay. Along with compatriots Anastasiya Ovsyannikova, Elena Ivanova and Margarita Goncharova, the team finished in first from a field of three to qualify for the 2012 Summer Paralympics and take Sergeeva’s first gold medal at a major international competition.

In a disappointing 2013 IPC Athletics World Championships, held in Lyon, Sergeeva entered just the one event, the 100m T37 where she failed to make the final. Both her favoured javelin and relay events were not included in the program, severely reducing her level of participation. The following year Sergeeva entered the 2014 IPC Athletics European Championships held in Swansea, this time a more sympathetic program of events allowed her to compete for three titles, the javelin T37, 100m T37 and the women’s 4 × 100 m relay T35-38. Despite posting a season’s best of 14.71s in the 100m final, it was still 3 tenths of a second outside the medal places, with Sergeeva finishing sixth. In the javelin she threw a distance of 24.01 to secure her first individual major international gold medal, beating team mate Irina Vertinskaya into silver medal position. In the relay Sergeeva and Goncharova were joined by Zhanna Fekolina and Anna Sapozhnikova to take gold and continue Russia’s dominance in the event.

In 2008, Sergeeva returned to the team of Russia in another event, this time at the Summer Paralympics in China. She competed in three events: javelin throws within the category F35-38,, as well as the shot placed in the F37-38 category , and the T37 100m. The first event she competed in javelin throw she recorded her season’s best throw of 24.60m to reach the finals, but she failed to improve her performance with the final three throws, and placed in eighth. On the next day, she participated in the F37-38 joint shot put competition, scoring 836 points but not making the final. The final event she competed in included her T37 100m. In the heats, she placed just outside the top three places, however she was one of the fastest loser, she was able to make it to the finals. On September 12, at the finals she was able to run 15.24s which was way over her personal best, to finish last in the race.
