Norwegian Cross-Country Skier Makes Winter Olympics History With Ninth Gold Medal

Winter Olympic history has been made on Sunday as Norway’s Johannes Høsflot Klæbo won his ninth gold medal in cross-country skiing. This is now the record for the most gold medals won by a single Winter Olympian. He previously was tied with fellow Norwegian’s Marit Bjoergen and Bjorn Daehlie (cross-country skiing) and Ole Einar Bjoerndalen (biathlon).

Klæbo‘s record-breaking medal came during Sunday’s 4x7.5-kilometer relay as he won his fourth gold medal in Milan Cortina. His team finished with a time of one hour, four minutes and 24.5 seconds.
