The World Figure Skating Championships are an annual senior figure skating event awarding medals in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance. The world title is considered the most prestigious competitive achievement in figure skating after the Olympic gold medal.
The men's event was first held in 1896 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and is the oldest discipline at the World Championships. [1] Until 1902 men and women were allowed to compete in the same event (open singles). Since 1903, only men can attend the event. [2]
Ulrich Salchow from Sweden has won the most gold medals in the men's singles and also the most total medals (thirteen). He won ten gold medals in a row; however, this feat was not achieved at back-to-back events, as he didn't compete at the 1906 World Championships in Munich, Germany. The record for most back-to-back titles is held by Austrian Karl Schäfer with seven gold medals. The most silver medals were won by James Grogan from the United States and Brian Orser from Canada (with four each), while Andor Szende from Hungary, Alexandre Fadeev from the Soviet Union, and Jan Hoffmann from East Germany share the record for the most bronze medals (with three each).

After the exclusion of female skaters from the open singles event at the World Championships in 1902, the International Skating Union established a separate second-class competition for women called the ISU Championships, which was first held 1906 in Davos, Switzerland. [2] The first combined World Championships for men, women, and pairs took place in 1930 in New York City. [5]
Sonja Henie from Norway holds the record in women's singles for total medals won (with eleven) and the most gold medals won (with ten), which is also the longest winning streak at back-to-back events in this discipline. Six skaters share the record for the most silver medals won (with three): Megan Taylor from Great Britain, Regine Heitzer from Austria, Gabriele Seyfert from East Germany, Surya Bonaly from France, Irina Slutskaya from Russia, and Michelle Kwan from the United States. Vivi-Anne Hultén from Sweden and Carolina Kostner from Italy hold the record for the most bronze medals won (with three each). [3]
