Javier Fernández López (born April 15, 1991 in Madrid ) is a former Spanish figure skater who started in a single run . He is the world champion of 2015 and 2016 and the European Champion of 2013 , 2014 , 2015 , 2016 , 2017 , 2018 and 2019 .

Personal

Javier Fernández was born on April 15, 1991 in Madrid. His father, Antonio, is a naval officer and his mother, Enriqueta, is a postman. His older sister Laura has competed in two world championships as a figure skater. He has been in a relationship with the former Japanese figure skating world champion Miki Andō since autumn 2014 .

In addition to figure skating, Fernández is also interested in football and tennis. His favorite club is Real Madrid .

Career

Beginnings

Javier Fernández López started figure skating at the age of six, shortly after his sister Laura took professional lessons. He made his first triple jump, a Salchow , at the age of twelve. At the age of 16 he was the first Spaniard to jump a triple axel .

He was initially trained by Ivan Saez and Carolina Sanz in Madrid, and later by Nikolai Morosow in Hackensack , Moscow and Daugavpils until the summer of 2011 .

After Fernández finished second at the national championships for senior citizens in 2006, he secured the Spanish junior championship title in 2007, 2008 and 2009 and the Spanish senior championship title for the first time in 2010.

In 2007 Fernández made his debut at World and European Championships , which he finished in 35th and 28th place respectively. Since then, he has continuously improved his performances and placements. In 2008 he finished 30th at the World Championships and 17th at the European Championships . In 2009 he was 19th at the World Championship and eleventh at the European Championship .

2009/2010 season

In the 2009/2010 season Fernández took the quadruple toe loop in his repertoire and made his debut in a Grand Prix competition , namely the Trophée Eric Bompard , which he finished in eleventh place. He ran his freestyle this season, as well as the next, as a pirate to the film music of the series Pirates of the Caribbean .

At the 2010 European Championships in Tallinn , he reached eighth place and was among the top ten at this tournament for the first time. A few weeks later he was 14th in his first Olympic Games in Vancouver . Since Darío Villalba 1956, he was the first Spanish figure skater who could qualify for the Olympic Games. Fernández López showed himself improved again at the 2010 World Cup in Turin with twelfth place. Thirteenth after the short program, he moved up one place in the final ranking as tenth in the freestyle. He set a new personal best of 215.66 points.

2010/2011 season

Fernández started the season with Grand Prix appearances at Skate Canada (fifth place) and the Cup of Russia (ninth place).

In the warm-up phase of the Spanish championships, Fernández cut his hand and had to be treated for 20 minutes. As a result, he did not have time to warm up enough and was weakened from the injury. So he could not defend his title. Javier Raya became Spanish champion. Both Spaniards were able to go to the European Championship, however, as Fernández himself had fought for two starting positions with his placement last year.

At the 2011 European Championships in Bern , after two falls in the short program, for the first time in his career he could not improve on the previous year. He finished ninth. However, he managed to improve again at the World Cup in Moscow , where he finished tenth and exceeded his personal best with 218.26 points. He showed two quadruple jumps in his freestyle for the first time ( Toeloop and Salchow ) and improved by four places after the short program. Only Patrick Chan and Michal Březina had also presented two quadruple jumps in their freestyle.

2011/2012 season

In June 2011, Fernández ended his collaboration with Nikolai Morosow , who, in his opinion, concentrated too much on his student Florent Amodio and began to train with Brian Orser in Canada. His choreographers are David Wilson and Jeffrey Buttle .

On October 29, 2011 Fernández won his first medal in a Grand Prix competition with silver at Skate Canada . He won the short program in front of the reigning world champion and local hero Patrick Chan , finished second behind him in the freestyle and achieved a total of 250.33 points, which is an increase of around 32 points on his previous best performance. Fernández relegated the 2010 world champion, Daisuke Takahashi , to bronze and only had to admit defeat to world record holder Chan by around three points. In his second Grand Prix appearance, Fernández missed his first Grand Prix victory on November 26, 2011 at the Cup of Russia by just 0.03 points over Yuzuru Hanyu . However, he qualified for the Grand Prix final for the first time . There he won the bronze medal on his debut on December 10th.

After the strong start to the season, Fernández lost security at the beginning of the year, especially when it came to the triple Axel . Nevertheless, he achieved his best career results at both the European Championship and the World Cup. He finished the European Championship in sixth place. At the World Championships in Nice , he achieved a single-digit result at the World Championships for the first time with ninth place, but after the freestyle the disappointment prevailed. After the short program, Fernández was still in fifth place. He named thoughts about his lost security with Axel as a possible reason for the flawed freestyle.

2012/2013 season

As in the previous year, Fernández contested his first Grand Prix of the season at Skate Canada . He had another strong performance in Canada. After the short program for the film music of The Mask of Zorro , he was already in the lead with a new personal best. In contrast to the previous year, he did not give up this lead in the freestyle to a Charlie Chaplin medley . Although he fell on the first jump, the first of three planned quadruple jumps, he immediately recovered and showed a powerful quadruple Salchow and triple Axel . The second half of the freestyle was followed by a four-way toe- loop-double-toe-loop combination and a triple- flip - Thorén- triple-Salchow combination as well as three more triple jumps. He also got level 4 ratings for his foot technique. This also means a new personal best for Fernández in the freestyle. The Spaniard thus inflicted his first individual defeat in two years on world champion and local hero Patrick Chan and won his first gold medal and the first for his country in a Grand Prix competition in figure skating. He improved his personal best in both segments to 253.94 points. Fernández's second Grand Prix competition was the NHK Trophy . There he missed the podium in fourth place due to incorrect performances. However, this did not change the qualification for the Grand Prix final in Sochi , as the only European in the field. After the short program Fernández was in fifth place, but showed the best freestyle of the field. He successfully landed three quadruple jumps, two salchows and a toe loop. After Brian Joubert (two Toeloops and a Salchow at the Cup of Russia 2006) he was only the second European to do this and the first to show this in a four-three-way combination. Fernández achieved personal bests with 178.43 points in the freestyle and 258.62 points in the overall performance. In the end, he was 0.04 points short of the bronze medal.

Fernández made history at the European Championships in Zagreb when he became the first Spaniard to win a medal at an ISU championship - the gold one. In the atmospheric freestyle for his Charlie Chaplin medley , he showed three quadruple jumps, a toe loop and two salchows. In the end, he got a personal record of 186.07 points, which is just two points below Patrick Chan's world record . In the overall performance, the Spaniard achieved 274.87 points, the third highest total number of points achieved to date after Chan and Daisuke Takahashi . In the end Fernández won the title with over 24 points ahead of second-placed Florent Amodio . This meant the biggest lead a European champion had since the introduction of the new rating system in 2005.

At the World Championships in London , Canada , Fernández won his first medal at world championships with bronze and thus also the first for Spain. He succeeded despite mistakes in the short program and freestyle, where he placed seventh and fourth.

2013/2014 season

Fernández started his second Olympic season with a fifth place in the NHK Trophy and a third place in the Cup of Russia . Here he missed the usual consistency in his jumps and missed the qualification for the Grand Prix final after two consecutive participations .

At the European Championships in Budapest , Fernández showed himself to be better again and defended his title from the previous year with ease by winning the short program and the freestyle.

Fernández's second Olympic Games began in Sochi as the flag bearer of his country at the opening ceremony. In the competition itself, he was fourth and missed a medal by a little more than one point. After the short program Fernández was still bronze, but after a good start he made too many mistakes in his freestyle.

At the World Championships in Saitama Fernández achieved a new personal best in the short program with 96.42 points. The freestyle also started promisingly for the Spaniard, but in the further course he made one mistake too much for the world title. In the end, he set a new personal best in the overall performance with 275.93 and won the bronze medal as in the previous year.

Season 2014/2015

At the start of the post-Olympic season, Fernández finished second in the Grand Prix series at Skate Canada and won the Cup of Russia for the first time in his career . Thanks to these successes, he qualified for the third time in his career for the Grand Prix final , which was to take place in Barcelona and thus for the first time on Spanish soil. There Fernández worked his way up from fifth place in the short program through the second best freestyle of the competition to the silver rank.

At the European Championships in Stockholm , Fernández was European champion for the third time in a row despite a few mistakes. Alexander Fadejew last won three titles in a row at the European Championships in 1989.

On March 28, 2015, Javier Fernández became the first Spaniard in history to become world champion in figure skating in Shanghai . After the short program, he was just three points behind his training partner and defending champion Yuzuru Hanyu , although he had to accept a fall in contrast to Fernández. In the freestyle, the Japanese started with two unsuccessful jumps, leaving the door to the world title open for the Spaniard who followed him. This did not remain flawless, but kept the damage within limits and ultimately took his chance and became world champion with almost three points ahead of Hanyu.

2015/2016 season

In autumn 2015 Fernández managed to win both of his Grand Prix appearances for the first time in his career . So he only won his first participation in the Cup of China , before he was able to win the Cup of Russia as in the previous year . He qualified for the fourth time for the Grand Prix final, which will again take place in Spain . There he reached in his freestyle, which was provided with three quadruple jumps, as the second figure skater after Yuzuru Hanyū the 200-point mark by delivering a personal best of 201.43 points. As in the previous year, he finished the Grand Prix finals in silver behind the world record.

Fernández at the 2015 Grand Prix Final

At the end of the year Fernández became Spanish champion for the sixth time. For the first time, he showed two quadruple jumps (a quadruple toe loop, triple toe loop combination and a quadruple salchow ) in his short program. The increase in the technical difficulty of his program was a reaction to the world record performance of his training partner Hanyū in the Grand Prix final.

The Spaniard confirmed the new achievement at the European Championships in Bratislava and successfully landed both four-fold jumps on the international stage in the short program. This meant a new personal record of 102.54 points. Fernández became the second figure skater after Yuzuru Hanyū , who was able to surpass the 100 point mark in the short program. After a freestyle, which earned him over 200 points despite a few mistakes, he achieved a new personal best with a total of 302.77 points and thus reached the 300-point mark in the total number of points as the second figure skater after Hanyū. Fernández secured the European title with a lead of over 60 points over the runner-up, an unprecedented lead at European championships . It was the fourth European title in a row for Fernández. This was the last time Ondrej Nepela, born in Bratislava , succeeded in doing this in 1972.

At the World Championships in Boston Fernández fell in the short program at the fourfold Salchow and was more than twelve points behind his training companion Yuzuru Hanyu . However, Hanyū made an unusually large number of mistakes in his freestyle, so that the title, which was believed to be safe, was not yet dry. However, the Japanese still achieved a strong 295 points due to his high program components (PC). Fernández therefore needed a personal record of points in the freestyle to defend his title and could not afford any mistakes. He opened his freestyle to Guys and Dolls , sung by Frank Sinatra , with an impeccable quadruple toe loop , which was consistently rated by the judges with the highest grade of +3 GOE (degree of execution). Then he showed an almost maximally rated quadruple Salchow triple toe loop combination, with a base value of 14.80 points. The Spaniard also showed in the following jump elements such as the triple- Axel- double toe loop combination, the maximum rated four-fold Salchow, the triple- flip- single Rittberger- triple Salchow combination, the triple Axel, triple Lutz and triple Rittberger no errors and no negative reviews in the execution. Overall, his score for the technical elements (TES) was 118.05 points. In addition, there were 98.36 points for the program components, the highest of the evening. Fernández improved his personal point record in the freestyle by 15 points to 216.41 points and his personal point record in the overall performance by 12 points to 314.93 points. He converted the 12 point deficit on Hanyū from the short program into a lead of almost 20 points and surprisingly defended his world title from the previous year. It was the first time a figure skater reached the 300-point mark at world championships . Fernández had hardly been able to train on the day of the freestyle due to a heel inflammation.

On April 19, 2016, Javier Fernández received the Royal Order for Merit in Sports ( Real Orden del Mérito Deportivo ) from Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy .

Season 2016/2017

Fernández started the 2016/17 season with the third victory in a row at the Cup of Russia . He succeeded with his freestyle to a medley by Elvis Presley to intercept the seven points ahead of him Japanese Shōma Uno .
Fernández's second Grand Prix appearance was the Eric Bompard Trophy for the first time in seven years . The Spaniard won this for the first time. As in the previous season, he was able to finish both of his Grand Prix victorious. In the Grand Prix final Fernández was still in third place after the short program, but the freestyle, which was rather disappointing for his standards, ensured that in the end he missed the podium in fourth. Just a week later he was able to defend his title at the Spanish championships.

The European Championship in Ostrava ended Fernández for the fifth consecutive time European champion . Ondrej Nepela was last able to do this in 1973, and otherwise only Karl Schäfer . The Spaniard set a new personal best in the short program with 104.25 points. In the freestyle, he fell on his second quadruple salchow and injured his hip and rib. Nevertheless, he also won this segment and had a lead of over 28 points on the Russian Maxim Kowtun in the final score .

The world championship in Helsinki began for the men with the technically highest quality short program in figure skating history. A total of 27 quadruple jumps were attempted, with seven men each showing two quadruple jumps. After seven runners had already exceeded the 90-point mark, Javier Fernández achieved a personal one with a flawless and thrilling performance of his Malagueña program, consisting of a four- toe -toe- three -toe-toe combination, a four-way salchow and a three-way axel Best performance of 109.05 points. The audience accompanied the Spanish step sequences with applause. Fernández admitted after the short program that he had felt a lot of pressure from the strong competition. The high level of competition was also maintained in the freestyle. So three runners exceeded the 200 point mark. After Yuzuru Hanyū had set a new point record as the starting runner of the last group and his compatriot Shōma Uno had also achieved a total number of points with his freestyle that Fernández had never achieved, the Spanish defending champion started his Elvis freestyle promisingly with a flawless four-fold toe loop as well a quadruple Salchow triple toe loop combination and a triple Axel double toe loop combination. After that, however, he fell at the fourfold Salchow and lost the thread. So he only managed a double instead of a planned triple flip as an entry into his third combination and he had to get out of the triple Rittberger . In the end, Fernández missed the podium again for the first time in four years in a row despite a score of over 300 compared to the technically strong and faultless Jin Boyang . It was the first time since his World Cup debut in 2007 that Fernández deteriorated in terms of placement. One possible reason he said was that the information about the others' freestyle results might not have been one hundred percent focused.

Season 2017/2018

Fernández started the 2017/18 Olympic season earlier than usual with a win at the Canadian Autumn Classic International at the end of September. With his new short program for Modern Times by Charlie Chaplin and his new freestyle program for Man of La Mancha by Joe Darion and Mitch Leigh , both choreographed by David Wilson , he succeeded in meeting Yuzuru Hanyū , who had set a new point record in the short program, to refer to the second place. Fernández did not increase his usual number of quadruple jumps despite the rampant quadruple jump fever and stayed with two quadruple jumps in the short program and three in the freestyle.

Fernández 'first Grand Prix appearance did not go according to plan. At the Cup of China he made numerous mistakes, especially in the freestyle. In the end, it was only enough for sixth place, which means he missed qualifying for the Grand Prix final early on . Fernández reportedly suffered from stomach problems during the competition. The Spaniard got off to a good start in
his second Grand Prix competition, the Trophée Eric Bompard . With over 107 points, he was just below his personal best. In the freestyle, however, he fell with four times Salchow and three times Axel . Nevertheless, it was enough to win before Shoma Uno .

Fernández won his sixth title in a row at the European Championships in Moscow , drawing level with Willy Böckl , who also became European champion six times between 1922 and 1928.

Fernández wanted to win the long-awaited Olympic medal at his third Olympic Games in Pyeongyang . He began this with a flawless Modern Times short program. He showed a quadruple-triple- toe- loop combination as well as a quadruple Salchow and a triple Axel as single jumps . All additional elements were assigned the highest possible level of difficulty with level 4. In the program components, the judges gave the highest grade of 10.0 nine times. The score of 107.58 points was enough for second place behind his training partner and the reigning Olympic champion Yuzuru Hanyu . The Spaniard also showed a good performance in his freestyle to become the Man of La Mancha . He successfully landed a quadruple toe loop, a quadruple salchow in combination, two triple axels and five more triple jumps. Four times he received the highest grade of 10.0 in the program components. His only significant mistake was doubling a planned quadruple salchow. In the end it was enough for the fourth best freestyle with 197.66 points. With a total of 305.24 points, he had to let the Japanese Shōma Uno overtake him, not entirely undisputed, so that Fernández won the hoped-for Olympic medal with bronze - the first for Spain in figure skating. He commented: "I finally have the medal I always wanted. I'm proud to take it home and share it with people. It means a lot to me. I hope it means to my country I know it means a lot to my family; they have invested so much, so much money and so much time. As am I. I'm sure they are just as happy as me. "
At the Olympic show, Fernández once more thrilled the audience as "Super Javi" with his aerobic class program, consisting of Flashdance parodies to corresponding 80s music.

After the Olympic Winter Games, Fernández confirmed his non-participation in the 2018 World Championships in Milan after eleven consecutive World Championships . The reason for this he said was his satisfaction with winning the Olympic bronze medal and this as a good time to end the season. He also announced that he would give up his apartment in Toronto and return to Madrid after nine years. He also stated that he no longer wanted to run a whole season, but rather only individual competitions such as the European Championships .

Season 2018/2019

In the 2018/19 season, which started under the new rating system, Fernández decided not to take part in the Grand Prix series .

On November 28, 2018, the Spaniard announced his departure from competitive sports after the 2019 European Championship . This was the last competition of his career.

At the European Championship in Minsk Fernández was born on January 26, 2019 in his last appearance for the seventh consecutive time European champion and pulled so by EM titles with Evgeni Plushenko same. After the short program, the Spaniard was still in third place, behind the two Russians Michail Koljada and Alexander Samarin , although the gap to Koljada was already considerable with almost nine points. Fernández owed this to the four-fold Salchow, who was under-rotated, and a mistake in the three-fold Axel . At the press conference after the short program, Fernández showed incomprehension about the negative assessment of these jumps and his performance in general. The Spaniard went into the freestyle as the penultimate after a strong performance by Samarin immediately before. The only major mistake of his freestyle was a failed flip in the three-way combination with Euler and triple Salchow. Overall, he showed otherwise safe jumps, including two fourfold, just as many as Samarin. In the technical standings he nevertheless lost four points to the Russian. With a gap of six points in favor of the Spaniard in the program components, he was able to make up these four points and the small deficit from the short program on Samarin and won both the freestyle and the competition by less than two points. Koljada, who was the last to run, fell three times, injured his hand and lost much more than just his big lead over Fernández.
