Roman Sadovsky and Keegan Messing will skate in the men’s singles short program, which begins at 8:15 p.m. ET Monday.
Messing — the ranking Canadian champion and a favourite for a medal — was forced to miss the team event due to a positive COVID-19 test, which prevented him from travelling to China with his fellow skaters. He finally arrived on Monday after getting the required four negative tests.
