His personal best time is 45.76 seconds, achieved in August 2003 in Tula.
In February 2008, at the Russian Indoor Athletics Championships in Moscow, he won the 4 × 200 meters relay, but failed the doping test with traces of Carphedon and Cannabis found in his blood sample. As a result, the IAAF suspended Rudnitsky for two years.[2]
