S+Daniel Grassl with the best freestyle performance of his life

It was a Grand Prix final that will go down in history – and right in the middle of it was Daniel Grassl with the best free skate of his sporting career so far. With 288,72 points, the 23-year-old from Merano finished fourth in Nagoya, but the ranking only tells part of the story.

More important is how he got there: with the second-best free skate of the entire competition, a new Italian record, and the certainty that he was one of the most influential figures of the evening in one of the most technically demanding competitions of all time.
