SHANGHAI, March 27 (Xinhua) -- Gabrielle Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron of France won the ice dance at the ISU Figure Skating Worlds here on Friday.
The French duo, winner of the European Championships, scored 112.34 points in the free dance, and finished with 184.28 in total.
"We are still very young, and we feel like we want to go so much further now, not for the medals but for ourselves," said Cizeron, 20, who finished fourth after short dance on Wednesday.
"I think that is what we have always done. We want to improve. We want to get better at what we do and what we love to do," he said.
They finished almost six points ahead of United States champions Madison Chock and Evan Bates, who took second place with a score of 106.87 and 181.34 overall.
Canada's Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje, winners of both the Grand Prix Final and Four Continents, finished third with 106.74 points, and 179.42 overall.
"We gave everything that we could and that is our ultimate goal and what we trained for," Weaver said.
China's Wang Shiyue and Lu Xinyu finished 19th.
