Peng Cheng Biography
Peng Cheng (Chinese: 彭程 ; pinyin: Péng Chéng ; Mandarin pronunciation: [pʰə̌ŋ ʈʂʰə̌ŋ] ; April 23, 1997) is a Chinese pair skater. With current partner Jin Yang, she is a two-time Four Continents medalist (silver in 2020, bronze in 2019), two-time Grand Prix Final silver medalist (2018–19, 2019–20), and the 2017 Asian Winter Games silver medalist. Peng/Jin represented China at the 2018 Winter Olympics.
Her partnership with Zhang Hao was announced in May 2012. The pair made their international debut at the 2012 Cup of China. They placed eleventh at their first World Championships.
In the 2013–14 season, Peng/Zhang won their first Grand Prix medals, bronze at the 2013 Cup of China and silver at the 2013 NHK Trophy, and qualified for the Grand Prix Final, where they came in fourth. They were selected for the 2014 Winter Olympics and finished eighth in Sochi. Ending their season, they placed fifth at the 2014 World Championships in Saitama.
For the 2014–15 Grand Prix season, Peng/Zhang were assigned to Skate America and Cup of China, where they placed third and first, respectively, qualifying for the 2015 Grand Prix Final. They finished fourth at that competition after placing fifth in the short program and third in the free skate.
Peng/Zhang’s final season together began at the 2015 Trophée Éric Bompard, where they placed fourth in the short program, before the remainder of the event was cancelled as a result of the terrorist attacks in Paris. They won the bronze medal at the 2015 Rostelecom Cup, qualifying for the Grand Prix Final, which had been expanded as a result of the Paris incident. They finished sixth there.
They won the silver medal at the 2015 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships. At the 2015 World Figure Skating Championships, they earned personal best scores in the free skate and combined total to finish in fourth place overall.
With former partner Zhang Hao, she is the 2015 Four Continents silver medalist and competed at the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Peng/Jin debuted on the Grand Prix with two silver medals at the 2016 Cup of China and the 2016 NHK Trophy, earning a place in the Grand Prix Final, where they finished sixth. At the 2017 Chinese Championships, they won their first national title.
On April 14, 2016, International Figure Skating magazine broke the news of Peng’s new partnership with Jin Yang. The Chinese Skating Association decided to switch partners between the two pairs of Peng/Zhang and Yu/Jin.
In their final event together, the 2016 World Championships, they performed poorly, placing twelfth in the short program and ninth in the free skate, for twelfth place overall.
The two won the 2017 CS Finlandia Trophy, their first international gold medal together. The Grand Prix was a disappointment, with Peng/Jin finishing fifth at both the 2017 Skate America and 2017 Internationaux de France. At the 2018 Chinese Championships, they finished second behind Yu/Zhang, and were named to China’s team for the 2018 Winter Olympics.
Competing at the 2017 Four Continents Championships, their first ISU Championship event, they placed fifth. At the 2017 Asian Winter Games, Peng/Jin won the silver medal behind Yu/Zhang. This concluded their season.
On the Grand Prix, Peng/Jin began at the 2018 Skate Canada International, where they won the silver medal, finishing ahead of bronze medalists Kirsten Moore-Towers / Michael Marinaro by 0.15 points. The two struggled on their side-by-side jumps in the free skate, where they finished fourth, an area where Jin said they hoped to improve. At the 2018 NHK Trophy, they won a second silver medal, by a far more decisive margin. They qualified to the Grand Prix Final, with Peng noting that “we feel like we miss our teammates, but advancing to the Grand Prix Final is something we are proud of.” At the Final they placed first in the short program and second in the free skate, winning silver overall. This was the team’s first major international medal.
With both Sui Wenjing / Han Cong and Yu/Zhang sidelined by injury at the beginning of the season, Peng/Jin were the sole Chinese pair team competing internationally on the senior level. They began with a gold medal at the 2018 CS Asian Open.
Peng/Jin competed in the pairs event in Pyeongchang, finishing seventeenth in the short program and thus missing the free skate by a single ordinal. Their season concluded at the 2018 World Championships, where they finished ninth.
On the Grand Prix series, Peng/Jin first competed at 2019 Skate America, placing first in the short program despite Peng stepping out on and underrotating her side-by-side jump. They placed first in the free skate as well, despite a fall on a throw triple loop, taking their first Grand Prix gold medal together. They did not skate in the gala due to the throw jump fall impacting Peng’s ankle. At their second event, the 2019 Cup of China, Peng/Jin placed narrowly third in the short program after Peng fell on a jump and they had unison issues with their spins. They rose to second place and the silver medal in the free skate.
Peng/Jin debuted at the 2019 CS U.S. Classic, taking the bronze medal. They then won the 2019 Shanghai Trophy.
Concluding the season at the 2019 World Championships, Peng/Jin placed third in the short program, earning a small bronze medal. They came fifth in the free skate due to Peng underrotating her triple Salchow attempt, and finished fourth overall, off the podium by 1.97 points. Reflecting on the season, Jin observed: ” We are satisfied with overall performances. We could pull out what we can. Of course, for some details, there are some areas to improve. The biggest accomplishment this season is to get our names out so that judges recognize us. For next season, we continue to improve our performance.”
At the 2019 Chinese Championships, they won their second national title. At the 2019 Four Continents Championships in Anaheim, they placed third in the short program behind Moore-Towers/Marinaro and a returning Sui/Han, in consequence of Peng falling on their throw jump. They came third in the free skate as well, making an error on the side-by-side triple Salchow jumps, finishing third overall, their first ISU Championship medal. Peng commented that “despite the success rate of the triple jump in the training, we want to try that and challenge ourselves, and show what we have done in our training.”
Peng/Jin skated cleanly to place second in the short program at the 2020 Four Continents Championships in Seoul. Jin said they were quite satisfied with their performance, while Peng revealed that sickness and a leg injury had impacted their training after the Grand Prix Final. Second in the free skate as well with only a stepout on a throw triple loop, they won the silver medal behind Sui/Han.
