The defending champions at 2014 Junior World figure skating championships in Sofia next week Alexandra Stepanova/Ivan Bukin (RUS) have withdrawn. The reason is illness. They will be replaced by Evgenia Kosigina/Nikolai Moroshkin.
Ivan’s father Andrei is 1988 Olympic Champion, 1984 Olympic silver medalist and four-time World champion in ice dance with Natalia Bestemianova.
