Norway’s Klaebo wins 9th gold medal in cross-country skiing, setting a Winter Olympics record

TESERO, Italy (AP) — Norway’s Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo has won his ninth gold medal in cross-country skiing, setting a Winter Games record, at the Milan Cortina Olympics.

The 29‑year‑old anchored Sunday’s 4 x 7.5-kilometer relay in the men’s competition for his fourth gold of the 2026 Games.

He had shared the record with three retired Norwegian athletes, Marit Bjoergen and Bjorn Daehlie in cross-country skiing and Ole Einar Bjoerndalen in the biathlon. He now stands alone at the top.
