Personal life

Jorik Hendrickx was born in Turnhout, Belgium.[1] He studies sport marketing and management at Johan Cruyff University in Tilburg.[2] His younger sister, Loena, is also a figure skater.[3]

Career

Hendrickx began training at age five and a half.[4] Since the age of 10, he is coached by Carine Herrijgers.[4] He began competing on the junior level internationally in 2007. He was out for four months in 2008 as a result of a groin injury.[5] He debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series in autumn 2009.

Hendrickx finished 9th at the 2012 European Championships. The next season, he received his first senior Grand Prix assignment, the 2012 Trophee Eric Bompard in November. Hendrickx placed 4th in the short program,[6] but had to withdraw the next day after sustaining an injury in an off-ice warmup for the morning practice.[7] He fractured his ankle, tearing ligaments from his fibula.[8][9][10] Returning to the ice in January 2013, Hendrickx began practicing some jumps toward the end of the month.[11] He missed the 2013 European Championships but competed at the 2013 World Championships, finishing 19th and qualifying a men's entry for Belgium at the 2014 Winter Olympics. He finished 16th.[5]
