USA Achieves Record 11 Gold Medals at Winter Olympics with Mixed Aerials Win

Team USA has set a new record by winning 11 gold medals at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, with a significant victory in mixed aerials. The American team, consisting of Kaila Kuhn, Connor Curran, and Chris Lillis, secured back-to-back gold medals in this event, marking the US's most successful Winter Olympics in terms of gold medals. Lillis, already a two-time Olympic gold medalist, contributed to the victory, which was achieved despite challenging weather conditions and last-minute team changes due to injuries. The U.S. team’s overall medal count is now at a historic high, surpassing previous records. Other notable achievements include Jordan Stolz’s potential third gold in speedskating, Alex Ferreira’s gold in freeski halfpipe, and the U.S. men's hockey team advancing to the gold-medal game. The U.S. women's curling team is competing for their first-ever Olympic medal, with a bronze medal game scheduled. Overall, the U.S. is second in the medal tally, closely trailing Norway, which leads with 17 gold medals. The Olympics continue with several key events, including speedskating, hockey, and freestyle skiing, as the U.S. aims to surpass its previous medal records.
