Cup of China

The Cup of China is an annual international figure skating competition held as part of the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating. The Cup of China is organized by the Chinese Skating Association and joined the series in 2003. Medals may be awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance.

Cup of China
Type:ISU Grand Prix
Location: China
Sui Wenjing and Han Cong compete at the 2017 Cup of China.

China declined to host any ISU-sanctioned figure skating events during the 2018–19 season in order to, among other stated reasons, prepare its venues for the 2022 Winter Olympics.[1] Finland hosted a replacement event on November 2–4, 2018, in Helsinki.[2]

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, a large number of modifications were made to the structure of the 2020 Cup of China. Only skaters from China or skaters already training in China were permitted to compete.[3] On July 9, 2020, the General Administration of Sport of China announced that no international sporting events would be held in China in 2020, except for 2022 Winter Olympics test events.[4] The ISU announced on July 13 that the 2020 Cup of China would be held as scheduled in Chongqing due to its connection to the Beijing test event, the Grand Prix Final.[5] On October 29, 2020, the Chinese Skating Association announced that the Cup of China would be held with no audience presence.[6]

The 2021 Cup of China was cancelled due to travel and quarantine restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and was replaced by the Gran Premio d'Italia.[7] On July 21, 2022, it was confirmed that the MK John Wilson Trophy would be held as a replacement for the 2022 Cup of China due to China's on-going COVID-19 travel restrictions.[8]
