At theJGP FinalinTorino,Grassl was the lone Italian skater to qualify at either the senior or junior level. Two days before the competition began, his right skate broke, which he attempted to remedy with tape. This proved inadequate in skating the short program, where he placed fifth after missing the second part of his jump combination.[10]Grassl then replaced his skates with only a day's preparation and struggled in the free skate, finishing last among the competitors.[11]Shortly afterward, he won his second consecutive Italian national title.

Returning to theEuropean Championships,Grassl placed eleventh in the short program with multiple errors.[12]Staging a comeback in the free skate, he was second in that segment with a new personal best score and rose to fourth place overall, under two points short of the silver medal.[13]

Grassl placed sixth in the short program at the2020 World Junior ChampionshipsinTallinn,Estonia.[14]Grassl attempted the quadflipin competition for the first time in the free skate, underrotating both it and his quad Lutz, as well as a triple Axel. He placed third in the segment, winning a small bronze medal, and was fourth overall, 1.74 points behind bronze medalistPetr Gumennik.[15]Grassl was scheduled to make his seniorWorld Championshipdebutin Montreal,but these were cancelled as a result of thecoronavirus pandemic.[16]

He was tenth in the short program and seventh in the free skate, while Team Italy finished in fourth place.[22][23][24]

2021–2022 season[edit]

Grassl began the Olympic season at the2021 CS Lombardia Trophyon home soil. Fifth, after the short program, he won the free skate and took the gold medal.[25]He then made his seniorGrand Prixdebut at the2021 Skate America,where he placed seventh.[26]His second Grand Prix assignment was initially the2021 Cup of China,but following that event's cancellation, he was reassigned to a special home2021 Gran Premio d'ItaliainTurin.[27]Grassl was second in the short program with a new personal best, dropping to third in the free skate to take the bronze medal overall. This was his first Grand Prix medal at the senior level, and he was the lone Italian medalist at the event.[28]Afterward, he expressed a desire to "thank those people in the crowd who supported me."[29]

Grassl began the2022 Winter Olympicsas the Italian entry in the men's short program of theOlympic team event.He placed fifth in the segment, securing six points for the Italian team.[32]Subsequently, Team Italy did not advance to the second phase of the competition and finished seventh.[33]Grassl next performed his short program in themen's event,coming twelfth.[34]In the free skate, Grassl made only minor errors in a three-quad program, managing a new personal best that saw him fourth in that segment, rising to seventh overall. He deemed it "probably the best of the season."[35]

Grassl concluded his season at the2022 World Championshipsin a men's field considerably more open than usual due to the absences ofNathan ChenandYuzuru Hanyuand theInternational Skating Unionbanning all Russian athletes due to their country'sinvasion of Ukraine.[36]He finished fifth in the short program with a new personal best but dropped to seventh after the free skate.[37][38]

Shortly before the Grand Prix Final, Grassl announced that he had moved back to Egna to train due to homesickness.[42]At the Final, Grassl finished in sixth place after placing fourth in the short program and fifth in the free skate.[43]At the Italian championships shortly afterward, he finished in fourth place, missing the podium for the first time in five years.[30]In the aftermath of these disappointments, Grassl began training inMoscowwith Russian coachEteri Tutberidze.[44]He would later say that he was finding it difficult to motivate himself to train after the Olympics, feeling that his time in Moscow had assisted him, but that he felt under pressure as "many people are against me and my decision" to train with Tutberidze.[45]

Competing at the2023 European Championshipsdespite his fourth-place finish at the national championships, Grassl finished eighth in the short program after doubling a planned quad Lutz.[45]He fell on his quad Lutz attempt in the free skate, and erred on two other jumps, but still rose to sixth overall.
