Daniil Ulanov – Kateryna Isakovych (CYP) were crowned as the new WDSF European Champions in Ten Dance in Kosice (SVK) on Saturday.

Earle Williamson – Veronika Myshko (UKR) ranked third and won the bronze medals. Ulanov - Isakovych have previously ranked second in the 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2018 World Championship Ten Dance and now received their first title, the European Championship.

New Champions were also crowned in the 2019 WDSF World Championship Senior II Latin. Frantisek Beres – Miriam Beresova (SVK) made the home crowd cheer as they were announced as World Champions.

Carlos Cirera – Eva Nieto (ESP) ranked second and Sergey Makarenko – Anna Makarenko (RUS) ranked third.

The 2019 WDSF PD World Championship Master Class I Standard had also winners from the host country. The 2017 World Champions, David Schavel – Iryna Copp (SVK) (in photo) dominated the competition by winning all five dances in the final, and won the World Championship title. Francesco Laterrenia – Laura Caramia (ITA) ranked second in their first WDSF PD event, and Michal Mladek – Sarka Hesova (CZE) repeated their result from last year by winning the bronze medals.
