Figure Skating stated that the American pair of Chelsea Liu / Devin Perini had withdrawn due to injury and would be replaced by Aya Takai / Brian Johnson.

[17] Kaitlin Hawayek / Jean-Luc Baker of the United States finished first in the short dance by a margin of 2.93 points over Russia's Anna Yanovskaya / Sergey Mozgov, the 2013 JGP Final champions, while another American team, Lorraine McNamara / Quinn Carpenter, placed third.

Yanovskaya/Mozgov narrowly came in first in the free dance but it was not enough to continue Russian ice dancers' four-year streak of gold medals at the World Junior Championships.

Rising from fifth after the short dance, Canada's Madeline Edwards / Zhao Kai Pang took the bronze medal ahead of McNamara/Carpenter who finished fourth.

2013 World Junior champion Elena Radionova won the ladies' short program, outscoring teammates Serafima Sakhanovich by a margin of 2.15 and Evgenia Medvedeva by 3.18.

Ten points ahead of her nearest rival in the free skating and 12.16 overall, Radionova became the first ladies' single skater to repeat as World Junior champion.
