It is a select group of Scottish athletes who reach the top of the world rankings, with Lewis Gibson the newest recruit to the lauded club.
Gibson, and his skating partner, Lilah Fear, topped the ice dance world rankings at the end of 2022 and although it lasted only a matter of days, it was quite a moment for the 28-year-old from Prestwick.
“It was really cool. I don’t think in the early days, I ever imagined making it to that point,” he says. “It didn’t last too long. We were only there about a week but it was still a huge achievement to get to that point in the first place and another massive milestone for us which was really satisfying to achieve.”
