In a thrilling announcement for figure skating fans, Olympic champions Sui Wenjing and Han Cong are set to make their competitive return next season. The duo, who clinched gold at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and silver at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, are ready to light up the ice as part of China's roster for the 2025-2026 ISU Grand Prix series.
After a hiatus since the Beijing Winter Games, Sui & Han are eager to dazzle audiences once again. Their upcoming schedule features the Cup of China held in Chongqing from October 24 to 26, as well as the celebrated NHK Trophy in Japan. The six-stop series kicks off in France on October 17 and will also visit Canada, Japan, the United States, and Finland.
This comeback is especially crucial as China's figure skating scene rallies to secure a spot for them in the qualifying event for the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics, following a setback at this year's World Championships. Their return is a beacon of determination and inspiration, electrifying fans and young athletes alike with hopes of more dazzling performances on ice. ✨⛸️
