Three Russian Skaters Set for 2026 ISU Denis Ten Memorial Challenge in Kazakhstan
The figure skating event, scheduled for October 7-10, will include Russian competitors, according to TASS.
Three Russian figure skaters are set to compete at the 2026 ISU Denis Ten Memorial Challenge, which will be held in Kazakhstan, according to a report by Russian state news agency TASS.
The competition is scheduled to run from October 7 to October 10, 2026, TASS reported.
The event is named in honor of Denis Ten, a Kazakhstani figure skater who won a bronze medal at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Ten died in 2018.
TASS did not provide further details in the excerpt regarding the identities of the three Russian skaters or the specific disciplines in which they will compete.
The International Skating Union (ISU) has in recent years placed restrictions on Russian athletes' participation in certain international competitions following the country's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Details on the eligibility conditions under which the Russian skaters will take part in the 2026 event were not specified in the available report.
