TESERO, Italy (AP) — Norway’s Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo won a 10th gold medal in cross country skiing at the Milan Cortina Olympics, setting another Winter Games record.
The 29‑year‑old, racing with Einar Hedegart, won the men’s team sprint, for his fifth gold at the 2026 Games, clocking 18 minutes, 28.9 seconds.
Ben Ogden and Gus Schumacher of the United States were 1.4 seconds behind for the silver, while Italy's Elia Barp and Federico Pellegrino took bronze, 3.3 seconds back.
Klaebo has won every race he has entered at these Games, breaking the Winter Olympics record in Sunday’s 4 x 7.5-kilometer relay. His final race will be in the 50-kilometer mass start at the weekend.
In the women's competition, Jonna Sundling and Maja Dahlqvist continued Sweden’s winning run.
