Norway Breaks Record for Most Gold Medals at the Winter Olympics

After biathlete Johannes Dale-Shevdal won the mass start, the total number of gold medals for Norway at the 2026 Olympic Games in Italy reached 17.

Thus, the Norwegian team set a record for the number of victories, surpassing its own achievement from four years ago (in 2022, there were 16 in Beijing).

Most of the medals belong to skier Johannes Høsflot Klæbo. At this Olympics, he has already won 5 victories — in the skiathlon, in the individual race, in the relay, in the sprint, and in the team sprint.

The 2026 Olympic Games in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo will take place from February 6 to 22.
