BEIJING -- France's four-time world champions Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron danced to the gold here on Monday, while Wang Shiyue and Liu Xinyu ranked 12th to set China's best result in the ice dance at a Winter Olympics.

Papadakis and Cizeron, the 2018 Olympic silver medalists, re-stated their dominance over this discipline with another new highest score, 136.15 points in the free dance, bringing their overall score to 226.98 for the championship.

The French duo, who did not compete at last month's European Championships as well as the 2021 World Championships because of COVID concerns, set a new personal best and world-record score of 90.83 points in Saturday's rhythm dance.
