The Autumn Classic International is an annual figure skating competition sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU), organized and hosted by Skate Canada. The competition debuted in 2014 in Barrie, Ontario, as one of the inaugural competitions of the ISU Challenger Series. The Autumn Classic International has been a Challenger Series event six times during its history. Medals were awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance; and when the event is part of the Challenger Series, skaters earn ISU World Standing points based on their results. The Autumn Classic International was last held in 2023 in Montreal.

Yuzuru Hanyu of Japan holds the record for the most wins at the Autumn Classic International in men's singles (with four). Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford of Canada, and Vanessa James and Morgan Ciprès of France, are tied for winning the most titles in pair skating (with two each). Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir of Canada, and Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier, also of Canada, are tied for winning the most titles in ice dance (with two each). No one skater holds the record in women's singles as there has been a unique champion each time the event has been held.

History

[edit]

The ISU Challenger Series was introduced in 2014. It is a series of international figure skating competitions sanctioned by the International Skating Union and organized by ISU member nations. The objective is to ensure consistent organization and structure within a series of international competitions linked together, providing opportunities for senior-level skaters to compete at the international level and also earn ISU World Standing points.[1] The inaugural edition of the Autumn Classic International coincided with the launch of the Challenger Series and was held in Barrie, Ontario. Ross Miner of the United States won the men's event, Gabrielle Daleman of Canada won the women's event, Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford of Canada won the pairs event, and Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron of France won the ice dance event.[2] The Autumn Classic International was a Challenger Series event in 2014, from 2016 to 2019, in 2021, and in 2023. No competition was held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] The last installment of the Autumn Classic International was held in 2023 in Montreal.[4]
