Guillaume Cizeron

Biography

Guillaume Cizeron (French pronunciation: [ɡijom sizʁɔ̃]; born 12 November 1994) is a French ice dancer. With his current partner Laurence Fournier Beaudry, he is a 2026 Winter Olympics gold medalist, the 2026 European champion, the 2025–26 Grand Prix Final silver medalist, a two-time Grand Prix champion, and the 2026 French national champion. With former partner Gabriella Papadakis, he is the 2022 Olympic champion, the 2018 Olympic silver medalist, a five-time World champion (2015–2016, 2018–2019, 2022), a five-time consecutive European champion (2015–2019), the 2017 and 2019 Grand Prix Final champion, and a seven-time French national champion (2015–2020, 2022). They have won ten gold medals in the Grand Prix series. Earlier in their career, they won silver at the 2012 Junior Grand Prix Final and 2013 World Junior Championships. Papadakis and Cizeron have broken world records 28 times, which is in itself a record across all figure skating disciplines since the introduction of the ISU Judging System in 2004. They are the current and historical world record holders in short/rhythm dance, free dance, and combined total. They are the first team to have broken the 90-point barrier in the rhythm dance, the 120-point and 130-point barriers in the free dance, and the first team to score above the 200-point, 210-point, and 220-point barriers in the combined total score. Papadakis and Cizeron were recognized for their graceful and balletic style. Their programs, inspired by modern dance, have been described as lyrical, and commentators have frequently acclaimed the quality of their skating skills.
