The men's competition was completed on Thursday evening when the men did their long freestyle program. The best performance of the evening was by Terry Kubicka of the United States. Terry only missed one of his many triple jumps; everything else was perfect and he finished to a standing ovation. He placed 11th in figures, pulled to 8th after the short program, and finished 7th overall. Gordon McKellen remained in 5th, Volkov remained in 1st, with Kovalev, Curry, and Cranston placing 2nd, 3rd, and 4th respectively.
The next evening, the ladies performed their long program. Dianne DeLeeuw appeared to be on her way to win her first world championship. That evening in the final freestyle portion of the event, Dorothy skated the best, but it was too late. Dianne won, Dorothy was 2nd, and Christine Errath was 3rd.
Saturday night marked the end of the competition. The evening began on a note of excitement since there was a major possibility that a gold medal would be won by the Americans, Collleen O'Connor and Jim Millns. The dance team from the Soviet Union, Irina Moiseeve and Andrei Minikov, were trailing just behind Colleen and Jim. But the scores were very close. The event of the evening was the free dance, a four minute program where many intricate dance steps were performed any way the couple wished. The Russians skated before Colleen and Jim; they skated beautifully, and received almost perfect scores. Colleen and Jim were the last to skate and when they took the ice, they received a great send-off from the crowd. They skated one of their best performances ever. Their scores were very high, but not as high as the Russians. They dropped to 2nd place and the Russians won. The team from Great Britain, Hillary Green and Glyn Watts, were in 3rd.
After the presentation of awards, the 1975 World Figure Skating Championships came to an end. The competition ended with the competitors already anticipating next year when they would have another chance to try for the winning titles, not only in the world championships, but also in the Olympics.
