2019 World Figure Skating Championships

The 2019 World Figure Skating Championships were held from March 18–24, 2019, at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. Sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU), the World Championships are considered the most prestigious event in figure skating. Medals were awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance. Nathan Chen of the United States won the men's event, Alina Zagitova of Russia won the women's event, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong of China won the pairs event, and Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron of France won the ice dance event. The competition would have determined the entry quotas for each skating federation at the 2020 World Championships; however, the 2020 World Champions were eventually cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
