Although she ended in eighth place in the hoop final, she won bronze with the ball behind Darja Varfolomeev and Sofia Raffaeli.

In an interview afterward, Nikolova said that she had felt nervous before the beginning of the qualifying round. She added that while she found watching the final difficult after failing to qualify, she was very happy for her friend Kaleyn, who won the silver medal.
2025
Nikolova won the first internal control competition of the year in February. She said that she was happy with the new code of points, which had just entered into effect, and that she aimed to show a different character in her new routines than she had previously.
