Figure Grand Prix Series Round 2 Canada Tournament Canceled October 15th 0:53
The International Skating Union announced on the 14th that it will cancel the second round of the Grand Prix series of this season, the Canadian tournament, due to the influence of the new coronavirus.
For this season's Grand Prix series, which will be held in six countries, the International Skating Union will limit the athletes participating in each tournament to athletes in the host country and athletes practicing in that host country as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus. We announced the policy to implement it.
Of these, the second round of the Canadian tournament was scheduled to be held in Ottawa from the 30th of this month, but the International Skating Union announced on the 14th that it will be canceled due to the influence of the new coronavirus.
Among Japanese athletes, Tomoko Miyahara, who was fourth in the women's single at the Pyeongchang Olympics, and Riku Miura and Ryuichi Kihara, who were paired, were scheduled to participate in the Canadian Games.
