Career
Ponsart began competing on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series in 2009. In 2011, he was selected to compete at the World Junior Championships and finished 17th.
In the 2011–12 season, Ponsart received his first senior Grand Prix assignment, the 2011 Trophée Éric Bompard, and placed eighth. At the end of the season, he won his first senior international medal, bronze at the 2012 Triglav Trophy. The following season, he struggled with injuries.
In October 2013, Ponsart injured his ankle at the Master's de Patinage, causing him to withdraw from the 2013 Trophée Éric Bompard.[2]
In August 2015, Ponsart relocated to Poitiers to train with new coach Brian Joubert.[3] However, the two had disagreements regarding training and ended the coaching relationship in November of that year.[4]
