Lucrezia Beccari

Lucrezia Beccari (born 18 December 2003) is an Italian figure skater. She is the 2019 Italian national silver medalist on the senior level and 2018 junior champion. She has competed in the final segment at two ISU Championships – the 2018 and 2019 World Junior Championships.

Early years

Beccari began learning to skate in 2009. In 2014 and 2015, she competed in novice ice dancing with Pietro Turbiglio. In 2016, she was off the ice for several months due to an injury.

Competing in the advanced novice ladies' category, Beccari became the Italian national champion in March 2017 and took silver at the Rooster Cup in April.

2017–2018 season

Beccari became age-eligible for junior international events and made her ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut in September, placing 7th in Minsk, Belarus. After winning the national junior title, she was selected to represent Italy at the 2018 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria; she finished 16th overall after placing 23rd in the short program and 11th in the free skate. During the season, she was coached by Edoardo De Bernardis and Claudia Masoero in Turin.

2018–2019 season

Beccari decided to train under Franca Bianconi in Bergamo. Starting her season on the JGP series, she placed 7th in Kaunas, Lithuania, and 15th in Ljubljana, Slovenia. She then won three junior international medals – bronze at the Golden Bear of Zagreb, gold at the Warsaw Cup, and gold at the Denkova-Staviski Cup. Although too young for international senior-level events, she competed in the senior category at the Italian Championships in December. Ranked first in the short program and fourth in the free skate, she was awarded the silver medal.
