Get ready, ice fans! Olympic figure skating champions Sui Wenjing and Han Cong are back in action for a thrilling comeback next season. Celebrated for grabbing gold at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and silver at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, the duo has been named to China's roster for the 2025-2026 ISU Grand Prix series, marking a much-anticipated reunion since the Beijing Winter Games.
This return is extra exciting since a missed qualification at this year's World Championships means the upcoming Beijing qualifier is their final shot at securing a berth for the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics. Talk about high stakes! 🏆
The six-stop Grand Prix series kicks off in France on October 17th. Next up is the Cup of China in Chongqing from October 24th to 26th, with further stops in Canada, Japan, the United States, and Finland. Whether you're a die-hard ice dance devotee or just love global sporting thrills, there's plenty to get hyped about! ❄️
So, mark your calendars and cheer on Sui & Han as they skate into this exciting new chapter, blending precision, artistry, and raw competitive spirit on a global stage.
