Krouglov is already gaining momentum. The 16-year-old reached the ISU Junior Grand Prix Final after securing two silver medals on the circuit. He finished fourth in Nagoya and later placed 10th at the 2026 World Junior Championships in Tallinn, Estonia—an improvement of 12 places from the previous year.

According to coach Leslie Stewart, Krouglov has made solid progress since last season.

“In previous years, a lot of his development was interrupted by injuries related to his growth, which made consistency difficult,” she explained. “Now that this phase has settled, he has been able to train with much better continuity, and that is making a difference.”

Did you watch his programs this season? What do you think?

 
Denis has a Fan Fest! If you would like to see more of his programs, take a look!

 
Agree! Juniors really are the future, and it’s always fun to get to know them before they hit the senior spotlight.

I don't always enough time to follow every junior event closely, so the off-season feels like the perfect window to “introduce” some of these skaters a bit more. Krouglov definitely stood out to me as one to watch.

From what I’ve seen, he comes across as quite composed and detail-oriented on the ice, with a more classical feel—but he’s still developing his style.
