The pair skating competition in figure skating at the 2022 Winter Olympics was held on 18 February (short program) and 19 February (free skating), at the Capital Indoor Stadium in Haidian District of Beijing.[1] Sui Wenjing / Han Cong of China, the 2018 silver medalists, won the event. Evgenia Tarasova / Vladimir Morozov, representing the Russian Olympic Committee, won silver, and Anastasia Mishina / Aleksandr Galliamov, also of ROC, bronze.
The 2018 champions, Aljona Savchenko / Bruno Massot of Germany, retired from competition. The bronze medalist Meagan Duhamel retired as well, whereas her partner Eric Radford, together with his new partner Vanessa James, qualified for the Olympics. The silver medalists, Sui Wenjing / Han Cong, qualified for the Olympics and had the fourth highest score in the 2021–22 season before the Olympics behind three Russian pairs: Anastasia Mishina / Aleksandr Galliamov, Evgenia Tarasova / Vladimir Morozov, and Aleksandra Boikova / Dmitrii Kozlovskii. At the 2022 European Figure Skating Championships, first Tarasova/Morozov, and then Mishina/Galliamov broke the world record scores. Mishina/Galliamov were the 2021 World champions. The Russians and home favorites Sui/Han were considered the most likely gold medal contenders.[2]
Laura Barquero of Spain failed the doping test, as announced after the closing of the Olympics.[3]
