Gabriella Papadakis, Guillaume Cizeron to go year-plus between competitions
Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron, the world’s top ice dance couple, said they plan to go 14 months between competitions, returning at the season-ending world championships in March, according to French media.
Papadakis and Cizeron, who live and train in Quebec, cited coronavirus pandemic-related travel concerns of trying to re-enter Canada if they leave. So they will instead skip the French Championships in December and the European Championships in January, according to the reports.
The world championships are in Stockholm.
The couple last competed at the most recent European Championships last January, taking silver for their first defeat in this Olympic cycle.
