Personal life

Hase was born on 10 June 1999 in Berlin.[1] She studied at the Schul- und Leistungssportzentrum in Berlin.[2]

Career

Single skating

Hase began learning to skate in 2004.[1] She skated internationally in the novice ranks until the end of 2013. In January 2016, she finished fifth in the junior ladies' category at the German Youth Championships.

2014–2015 season: First season in pairs

Hase teamed up with Nolan Seegert in 2014. The pair's international debut came in late November, at the 2014 NRW Trophy, where they took the bronze medal. In January 2015, they took bronze at the Toruń Cup before competing at the 2015 European Championships in Stockholm, Sweden; they placed eleventh in the short program, tenth in the free skate, and eleventh overall. They concluded their first season with bronze at the International Challenge Cup.

2015–2016 season

Making their ISU Challenger Series debut, Hase/Seegert placed 6th at the 2015 CS Nebelhorn Trophy. They then won gold at the 2015 NRW Trophy and finished sixth at the 2015 CS Tallinn Trophy. They received silver at the 2016 Sarajevo Open and at the 2016 Bavarian Open.

2016–2017 season

In November, Hase/Seegert won gold at the 2016 NRW Trophy and bronze at the 2016 CS Warsaw Cup. The following month, they competed at the German Championships but withdrew following the short program due to an injury to Hase.[3]

In January, Hase/Seegert skated at the 2017 Toruń Cup, placing fourth, and then at the 2017 European Championships in Ostrava; they finished twelfth overall in the Czech Republic after placing thirteenth in the short program and twelfth in the free skate. In March, the pair took bronze at the 2017 Cup of Tyrol before competing at the 2017 World Championships in Helsinki, Finland. They achieved a personal best short program score, 59.76 points, but their ranking (nineteenth) was insufficient to advance to the final segment.

2017–2018 season

In October, Hase/Seegert finished eighth at the 2017 CS Finlandia Trophy and fourth at the 2017 CS Minsk-Arena Ice Star. They outscored Annika Hocke / Ruben Blommaert by 5.77 points for the bronze medal at the 2017 CS Warsaw Cup in November. The following month, the pair won silver behind Aliona Savchenko / Bruno Massot at the German Championships, ranking second in both segments and obtaining 4.33 points more than Hocke/Blommaert.[4] Hase/Seegert were not included in Germany's team to the 2018 Winter Olympics, having finished third overall in the national qualification standings.[5]

Due to a back injury sustained by Hase, the pair was unable to accept a spot at the 2018 European Championships, which became available after Savchenko/Massot withdrew.[6]

2018–2019 season: First national title

Hase/Seegert started the new competition season at the 2018 CS Nebelhorn Trophy and finished fourth.[7] The pair received their first Grand Prix invitations.[8] They placed fifth at the 2018 Skate America and seventh at the 2018 Internationaux de France.[9][10] After participating at the 2018 Golden Spin of Zagreb and placing fourth,[11] they won their first national title at the 2019 German Championships.[12]

Hase/Seegert took sixth place at the 2019 European Championships,[13] and at the 2019 Challenge Cup they won gold at their first international competition with a new best total score of 185.38 points.[14][15] Hase/Seegert and Hocke/Blommaert were assigned to Germany's two berths at the 2019 World Championships in Saitama.[16] In the short program Hase/Seegert started with a personal best of 64.28 points in the competition and took tenth place. However, an aborted lift towards the end of the free program put them in fourteenth place in that segment (109.76 points);[17][18] overall, they reached thirteenth place.

2019–2020 season: Grand Prix medal

After the pair Hocke/Blommaert announced the end of their common career in April 2019,[19] Hase/Seegert were the only German pair to receive two starting places from the International Skating Union for the 2019–20 Grand Prix season.[20] They placed fifth at the 2019 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, setting new personal bests in the short program and in total score, before placing seventh at the 2019 Internationaux de France. At their second Grand Prix assignment, the 2019 Rostelecom Cup, Hase/Seegert placed fourth in the short program, narrowly behind the new Russian pair of Stolbova/Novoselov.[21] In the free skate, Stolbova/Novoselov performed poorly, while Hase/Seegert nearly equaled their personal best in the segment, placing fourth again, but third overall due to their short program lead over the Austrian team Ziegler/Kiefer. The bronze medal was their first Grand Prix medal, which Seegert called "our biggest moment so far in our career."[22]
