Japan Open (figure skating)
The Japan Open is an annual senior international figure skating team competition organized by the Japan Skating Federation. The current format (team event) was established in 2006. The competition is held every autumn in Japan. Invited skaters compete in the disciplines of men's and ladies' singles. Skaters perform a free program but no short. Individual results are combined for a team standing.
From 1997 until 2001, Japan Open was an individual competition in all four figure skating disciplines.
2020
The 2020 competition was held on October 3, 2020 at the Saitama Super Arena.[1]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the competition featured two teams composed of domestic Japanese skaters only, rather than the traditional three teams drawn from their respective regions (Europe, Japan, and North America). Senior, junior, and professional skaters will be included.[2]
