2025 World Championships

The 2024 World Figure Skating Championships were held from March 18–24, 2024, at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada.[1] Sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU), the World Championships are considered the most prestigious event in figure skating,[2] second only to the Olympics. Montreal had originally been scheduled to host the 2020 World Championships, which were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] Medals were awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance. The competition determined the entry quotas for each skating federation at the 2025 World Championships.

The ISU published a complete list of entries on February 27, 2024.[4] Ilia Malinin of the United States won the men's event, Kaori Sakamoto of Japan won the women's event, Deanna Stellato-Dudek and Maxime Deschamps of Canada won the pairs event, and Madison Chock and Evan Bates of the United States won the ice dance event.

Men's singles

[edit]

After a disastrous short program, where he finished in nineteenth place, Adam Siao Him Fa of France rallied back in a free skate performance that included four successful quadruple jumps, finishing second in the free skate and third overall. This was the largest comeback in the history of the World Championships.[16] Meanwhile, Ilia Malinin of the United States set a new record for the highest score in the free skate. His score of 227.79 beat the previous record held by Nathan Chen, also of the United States. Malinin's free skate included six quadruple jumps, including his signature quadruple Axel.[15]

Pairs

[edit]

At age 40, Deanna Stellato-Dudek of Canada became the oldest woman to win a gold medal at the World Championships. She had competed in single skating as a teenager, winning a gold medal at the 1999 Junior Grand Prix Final and a silver medal at the 2000 World Junior Championships, before retiring in 2001 due to injury.[19] She returned to skating as a pair skater in 2016, first with Nathan Bartholomay and competing for the United States, and then with Maxime Deschamps and competing for Canada. When speaking about her record-setting accomplishment, Stellato-Dudek stated that "it is something I take with huge pride. I hope others can be inspired to stay around a lot longer, not only in sport, but also in other aspects of life.”[20]
