TORONTO — Three-time Canadian pairs champions Jessica Dube and Bryce Davison are ending their partnership.
The 2008 world bronze medallists announced their decision Thursday, nearly five months after Davison underwent season-ending knee surgery.
Dube, 23, skated singles this season after the 25-year-old Davison had surgery on Oct. 26 to replace a broken bone chip in his knee, the result of a joint disorder called osteochondritis dissecans.
Dube, from St-Cyrille-de-Wendover, Que., and Davison, from Huntsville, Ont., who were sixth at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, plan to remain involved in the sport.
Dube and Davison, who’ve been together nine years, won the 2007, 2009 and 2010 Canadian championships and were third at the 2008 world championships.
They scheduled a conference call for later Thursday to discuss their decision.
