Lazarovski made his first Macedonian team at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, where he competed in the men's 200 m butterfly. Swimming in heat two, he edged out Hong Kong's Mark Kwok to claim a second spot and twenty-ninth overall by 0.69 of a second in 2:01.30. [2] [3]

He raced to fourth place by 0.11 of a second behind Bulgaria's Georgi Palazov in 2:02.26. Lazarovski failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed twenty-seventh overall in the preliminaries.
