Stolz Skates to Gold, Diggins Grabs Bronze!

Jordan Stolz of the U.S. began his bid for four gold medals at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan on Wednesday, February 12, by winning the 1000 meters speedskating race. Meanwhile, U.S. cross-country skier Jessie Diggins secured a bronze medal, marking her third consecutive Olympics with a podium finish.

Stolz, who had dreamed of this moment since he was five years old, celebrated his victory. He had been inspired by watching the 2010 Winter Olympics. The Associated Press reported that Stolz's win came after a ten-minute wait to confirm the results.

Diggins, despite racing with injured ribs, powered through the 10-kilometer interval start free event at the Tesero Cross-Country Skiing Stadium in Lago di Tesero (Val di Fiemme), securing third place. This achievement further solidified her role in revitalizing Olympic-level cross-country skiing in the U.S.
