2001 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships
The Four Continents Figure Skating Championships (4CC) is an annual figure skating competition. The four continents of the event's name refer to the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania (four of the continents represented in the Olympic rings, omitting Europe). Skaters compete in the categories of men's singles, ladies singles, pairs, and ice dancing.
The 2001 competition was held from February 7 through 10th in the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. It was the official site-testing competition before the 2002 Olympics, which would be held in that arena.
