Jonathan Franciscovich Guerreiro (Russian: Джонатан Францискович Гурейро;[1] born 3 April 1991) is a Russian-Australian ice dancer who currently competes with Tiffany Zahorski. He is a two-time World Junior medalist, having won bronze in 2009 with Ekaterina Riazanova and silver in 2011 with Ekaterina Pushkash.

Personal life

Guerreiro was born on 3 April 1991 in Sydney, Australia,[2] to Svetlana Liapina, a former ice dancer for the Soviet Union, and Francisco Guerreiro from Portugal.[3] He grew up in Australia before moving to Moscow with his family in 2005.[4] He holds dual Russian-Australian citizenship.[4]

Early career

After early partnerships with Australians Kiah Pilz and Rachael Reading, Guerreiro competed on the Russian regional level with Daria Panfilova.[4] He teamed up with Ekaterina Riazanova in the summer of 2006.[4][5] They competed together for three seasons and won the bronze medal at the 2009 World Junior Championships. They were coached by Elena Kustarova and Svetlana Alexeeva at Blue Bird FSC in Moscow.[6] Shortly after the 2009 Junior Worlds, Riazanova ended the partnership to skate with Ilia Tkachenko.[3]

Partnership with Pushkash

Junior career

Coaches Irina Zhuk and Alexander Svinin arranged a tryout with Ekaterina Pushkash and they teamed up in May 2009.[3] They finished 5th at the 2009–10 Junior Grand Prix Final and won the bronze medal at the 2010 Russian Junior Championships. At the end of the season, they switched coaches to Natalia Linichuk and Gennadi Karponossov, which required them to move to Aston, Pennsylvania in the United States.[3]

During the 2010–11 season, they finished 4th at the JGP Final. At the 2011 Russian Junior Championships, they won the silver medal and were assigned to the World Junior Championships where they won silver.

Senior career

Pushkash and Guerreiro moved up to the senior level for the 2011–12 season. Guerreiro fractured his left foot in training in June 2011, causing them to miss a few weeks of training.[7] They competed at two Grand Prix events, 2011 Skate Canada and 2011 Cup of Russia. At the end of the season, they changed coaches to Nikolai Morozov in Moscow.[2]

Prior to the 2013–14 season, Pushkash and Guerreiro began training with Anjelika Krylova and Pasquale Camerlengo in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. They ended their partnership at the end of the season.

Partnership with Zahorski

In 2014, Guerreiro formed a partnership with French ice dancer Tiffany Zahorski, coached by Alexander Zhulin.[8] In July 2014, the Russian Federation asked the French Skating Federation (FFSG) to release her to skate for Russia.[8] They placed fifth at the 2015 Russian Championships.

The FFSG released Zahorski in October 2015, three years and nine months after her last competition for France, allowing Zahorski/Guerreiro to appear for Russia internationally.[9] The two made their international debut at the 2015 Santa Claus Cup, winning the gold medal. They finished fifth at the 2016 Russian Championships.

In 2016-17 season, Zahorski and Guerreiro competed at the 2016 Ondrej Nepela Trophy where they won the bronze medal after placing third in both the short and free dance segments; earning them a new personal best total score of 165.64 points. They won another bronze medal in their next event at the 2016 CS Finlandia Trophy.
