Miriam Bobková-Cupáková (born March 2, 1979 in Spišská Nová Ves, Košice) is a Slovak sprint hurdler.[1] At the 2007 IAAF World Championships in Osaka, Japan, Bobkova set both a national record and a personal best time of 13.04 seconds, by finishing seventh in the preliminary heats of the women's 100 hurdles.[2]
Bobkova represented Slovakia at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she competed in the women's 100 m hurdles. She ran in the first heat against seven other competitors, including Turkey's Nevin Yanıt and Poland's Aurelia Trywiańska-Kollasch. She finished the race in last place by twenty-six hundredths of a second (0.26) behind Belarus' Katsiaryna Paplauskaya, with a time of 13.65 seconds. Bobkova, however, failed to advance into the semi-finals, as she placed thirty-seventh overall, and was ranked farther below two mandatory slots for the next round.[3]
