Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir took to Twitter on Tuesday night to announce their retirement from professional skating.
While they won’t be competing anymore, they still have a few skates to do as part of the Rock The Rink Tour this fall.

As the tour makes its way across Canada in October and November, it’ll be the final chance for many Canadians to see the beloved duo skate in person.
On Sunday, Oct. 6, that tour stops in Penticton at the South Okanagan Events Centre and tickets are still available online.
Coming along with Virtue and Moir will be fellow Canadian skating stars Patrick Chan, Kaetlyn Osmond and Elvis Stojko.
Big name international skaters like Carolina Kostner, Tatiana Volosozhar, Maxim Trankov and Jeremy Abbott will be there as well.
