Who won the U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Wichita? See the top results
The U.S. Figure Skating Championships have concluded at Intrust Bank Arena in Wichita, after some of the nation’s most elite skaters took the ice in hopes of winning gold — and a spot in the World Championships.
The competition made its Wichita debut and ended Sunday, Jan. 26.
Among the athletes competing in Wichita are former (and hopefully future) Olympians, many of whom are also defending national champions.
But how will did the top-ranked skaters perform at the 2025 competition? Here are the results:

What’s next for winners?
Many of the skaters competing here this week will advance to the 2025 World Figure Skating Championships, set for March 25-30 in Boston.
That competition will be extra important to these athletes because 2025 is an Olympic-qualifying year. The results in Boston will determine whom viewers will see compete at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy.
