Takahashi crowned at Four Continents

WORLD champion Daisuke Takahashi of Japan breezed to victory in the men's competition at the Four Continents figure skating championships in Taipei yesterday, electrifying the crowd with his precision, power and poise.

Aside from missing a quad toeloop at the beginning of his program, the 24-year-old Takahashi was near perfect, scoring a season's best 160.51 in the free skating for a total of 244.00, after his dominating performance in Friday's short program. Compatriot Yuzuru Hanyu, the 2020 world junior champion, came in second with 228.01 in total. US champion Jeremy Abbott was third on 225.71 points.
