Japan’s Kaori Sakamoto closed out her competitive career with her fourth world title in the women’s singles competition at the Figure Skating World Championships in Prague, Czechia on Friday.

The 25-year old wrapped up a historic skating career which included four Olympic medals, including two silvers at this year’s Milan Cortina Games, with a personal-best 238.28 after an emotional free skate performance at O2 Arena. She’s the first women’s single skater to win four world championships since Michelle Kwan, who won her fifth in 2003.
