Hi. I just started watching figure skating and I don't know very many skaters, so who do you think is going to be the next big star in men and women?
*Next* big star? As in not among the current “big” stars?
I would put Daniel Grassl on that list. This was supposed to be his first full season as a senior, and he was supposed to make his Worlds debut last season, but none of that has happened. I would have been curious to see what he would have done with this being a full season.
Other men, I would say Petr Gumenik, Andrei Mozalev, Daniil Samsonov, Shun Sato, Yuma Kagiyama, Makar Ignatov, Camden Pulkinen, Tomoki Hiwatashi... I’m probably forgetting some lol.
As for ladies, we have Kamila Valieva, Daria Usacheva, Maiia Kromykh, Anna Frolova... the Russians have a never-ending list of stars, and there’s more coming up, like Veronika Zhillina. Alysa Liu is another one. Next year will be her first year as a senior. Also, there’s Haein Lee... Again, I’m probably forgetting some people. Oh, and An Xianyi... she’s the 2020 Chinese National Champion. This would have been her first year as a junior, but... things didn’t work out that way. I would have been curious to see what she would have done, but we will get to see what she is capable of at some point in the future.
I’m sure I’m forgetting people, but that’s what I’m thinking right now. Thanks for the ask!

Junior Worlds Preview - Ladies
I saw one headline mentioned that this competition was going to be Kamila Vailieva vs. Alysa Liu. And I’m sorry, but I have to disagree. I think it could be, but I don’t think it will be. The judges definitely prefer Valieva, and she has outscored Liu all season long. If Liu can skate a perfectly clean free skate, she might be able to push her, but I think this is Vailieva’s to lose.
So, with Valieva winning gold, Liu is the solid silver medalist. That leaves a pretty good battle for bronze, though. I would say that the bronze medal favorites are Heien Lee of South Korea and Daria Usacheva of Russia. Both are very talented ladies, and either could end up on the podium. I would say that Lee has the momentum going in here if I had to choose.
I would say the next set of ladies to watch out for are Maiia Kromykh of Russia, Seoyeong Wi of South Korea and Mana Kawabe of Japan. None of them are very consistent and any could end up in the top five here. I would say that Kromykh has the edge here, but anything could happen here.
I would say that the next group that could fill out the top ten are Ekaterina Ryabova of Azerbaijan, Alessia Tornaghi of Italy, Tomoe Kawabata of Japan, Starr Andrews of the US, and Ekaterina Kurkakova of Poland. Kurakova has the highest personal best score but hasn’t really gotten much closer to that since she did that. I would give the edge to Kawabata or Ryabova as well, but it could be an interesting battle for the remaining top ten spots.
Other skaters to watch out for that could do some good things here are: Kaiya Ruiter of Canada, Yi Zhu of China, and Lindsey Thorngren of the US.
There are an astounding 48 ladies competing here, so half the field will get cut after the short program.
