James Min (born 13 September 2000) is an Australian former figure skater. He is a two-time Australian national silver medalist (2016, 2019).
On the junior level, he is the 2015 Jégvirág Cup silver medalist, and a three-time Australian junior national champion (2014-2016).
He reached the free skate of the 2020 and 2022 Four Continents Championships.
In May 2024, following the U.S. Center for SafeSport's banning of fellow Australian men's singles skater, Brendan Kerry, from having any involvement in activities under the jurisdiction of the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee following a thorough investigation on claims of sexual misconduct.[1] In light of this, Min wrote a lengthy post on his Facebook, criticizing the lack of protective measures implemented in Australia to protect the safety of children in sport. In that same post, he also alleged that he had been groomed by an adult from the figure skating world when he was still a child. Min also brought up the years of trauma he suffered throughout his figure skating career because of this.[2]
