Stolz is the future of U.S. speedskating. He’s also the man of the moment<\/a>. The 21-year-old Kewaskum, Wisconsin, native won his second gold in the second of his four events<\/a> at this year’s Games, taking first place in the 500 meters with an Olympic record 33.77. Stolz\u2019s next chance to add to his medal collection is Thursday, in the men\u2019s 1500 meters, and then next weekend in the mass start.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Team USA men’s hockey takes on Denmark as group play continues (3:10 p.m. ET)<\/strong><\/p>\n The Americans’ 5-1 victory over Latvia in the teams\u2019 opening match of group play<\/a> was far closer than the score suggests \u2014 at least initially. Next up in Group C for Team USA is a Denmark squad that dropped its group-play opener to Germany 3-1. Oscar Fisker M\u00f8lgaard, who made his NHL debut with the Seattle Kraken earlier this season, scored the Danes’ lone goal in that matchup.

Still remaining for Stolz are the 1,500m on Thursday and the chaotic, unpredictable mass start event two days later.<\/p>\n Read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Sean Leahy<\/p>\n The U.S. men\u2019s curling team improved to 2-2 with an 8-6 win over Germany on Saturday.<\/p>\n The Americans stormed out to a big, early lead with a four in the first end. That advantage increased to 6-2 after the fourth end, but the Germans slowly crawled back with four points over the next four ends to cut the U.S. lead to one.<\/p>\n Skip Danny Casper added one in the ninth end and then prevented the Germans from having a chance to tie in the 10th.<\/p>\n The U.S. men continue round-robin play on Sunday with matches against Sweden (3:05 a.m. ET) and Norway (1:05 p.m. ET).<\/p>\n USA’s Aidan Oldenburg, USA’s Benjamin Richardson (L) and USA’s Daniel Casper (C) compete in the curling men’s round robin between Germany and USA during the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games at the Cortina Curling Olympic Stadium in Cortina d’Ampezzo on February 14, 2026.

Kauf was working on a gold-medal run until a tiny bobble midway down the course caused her left ski to slip out for a split second. That ultimately allowed the chasing Anthony to catch up, win on time and on style.<\/p>\n Dual moguls, a new event to the Olympics this this year, matches skiers in a series of head-to-head races where they advance in a single elimination bracket until a winner emerges. Time isn\u2019t the only factor, however, as judges also score turns and tricks just as they would in the regular moguls format.<\/p>\n Things got wild in the semifinals. Facing France\u2019s Perrine Laffont, Kauf advanced on a technicality as both skiers crashed. But Laffont, who got stuck trying to keep her balance after landing her first trick, had to ski the wrong way around a gate, which essentially resulted in a disqualification.<\/p>\n\n
