Japan Open (figure skating)

The Japan Open is an annual senior international figure skating team competition organized by the Japan Skating Federation. From 1997 until 2001, Japan Open was an individual competition in all four figure skating disciplines. The current format, a team competition, was established in 2006. The competition is held every autumn in Japan. Invited skaters compete in men's and women’s singles. Skaters perform a free program but no short. Individual results are combined for a team standing.
