2024 ISU Grand Prix Final of Figure Skating: A Look At The Qualified Skaters

The line-ups for the 2024 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final in Grenoble from 5-8 December is complete.

The last of the six regular season stops was the Cup of China in Chongqing where Sato Shun and Amber Glenn took singles wins to secure their spots at the finale in the French city.

The ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating is a series of senior international figure skating competitions organized by the International Skating Union (ISU). The invitational series was inaugurated in 1995, incorporating several previously existing events. Events include men’s singles, women’s singles, pair skating, and ice dance. 

Qualification Criteria

Skaters in the individual events enter the competition either by being seeded or by invitation. The seeding of top skaters at Grand Prix events basically takes into account their placement from the previous World Championships, as well as their ISU international ranking. 

Athletes who are not seeded can be invited by the host country. Each country can invite up to three of their own skaters for each discipline providing them an opportunity to showcase their top competitors.

The Grand Prix of Figure Skating relies on a points-based system based on results from the selected international events. The top qualifying skaters from each discipline are eligible to compete in the Grand Prix Figure Skating Final.
