BOSTON (AP) Canada's Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford defended their pairs world title Saturday, coming from behind with a near-perfect free skate.
After the high of winning their first championship last year, Duhamel and Radford struggled to find their focus for much of this season, frustrated by uneven results. But they recaptured their form just in time for worlds, and in front of what felt like a home crowd Saturday, Duhamel landed a throw quad salchow.
China's Sui Wenjing and Han Cong, who led coming into the long program, had to settle for their second straight silver after two mistakes Saturday.
Five-time world champion Aliona Savchenko of Germany, skating at worlds for the first time with new partner Bruno Massot, won bronze.
Duhamel and Radford scored a personal-best 153.81 points for 231.99 total.
