"Deanna Stellato-Dudek Makes History at Figure Skating Worlds"
Deanna Stellato-Dudek, at 40 years old, and her partner Maxime Deschamps won the pairs competition at the ISU World Figure Skating Championships for Canada, making her the oldest female figure skater to win an Olympics or world championship. After a 15-year hiatus from the sport, she returned to figure skating at 33 and is now an inspiration to many, aiming to compete in the 2026 Winter Olympics. Two-time U.S. champion Ilia Malinin skated a clean short program, landing two quadruple jumps and a triple axel, positioning himself well for a second straight world championships medal, while fellow American Jason Brown finished fourth in the men's short program.
