BOSTON — The 2025 world figure skating championships get underway today, with the first of four days of competition at TD Garden in Boston. It's the first time the world championships have been in the United States since 2016.
As the last major international competition before the 2026 Winter Olympics, these world championships will not only help determine Olympic quota spots but also set the stage for Milan-Cortina. It's a chance for athletes to see how they stack up, and it will largely determine which skaters will enter the Olympics as the favorites to land on the podium.
The first day of competition starts with the short program in women's singles, as Amber Glenn, Isabeau Levito and Alysa Liu will all take the ice for the U.S. The pairs short program is scheduled for later tonight, following an in-arena tribute to the members of the figure skating community who died during the mid-air collision over the Potomac River earlier this year.
Here's the latest from Day 1:
Here is the complete schedule for the 2025 world figure skating championships, with channel and television coverage start times in parentheses. The entirety of all sessions will be available on Peacock.
