China's former world pairs champions Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo lifted their sixth figure skating Grand Prix Final title Saturday, sealing a return to form as they chase a hitherto elusive Olympic gold medal.
Located in East Vancouver on the grounds of Hastings Park, this was the site of Game 4 of the 1972 Summit Series. It will be used for both short track speed skating and figure skating.
One of the most popular events at the 2010 Olympics, this competition will feature 30 skaters in the disciplines of ladies' and men's singles, 20 pair teams, and 24 ice dancing teams.
