"Norway's Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo has won a 10th gold medal in cross country skiing at the Milan Cortina Olympics, setting another Winter Games record. The 29‑year‑old, racing with Einar Hedegart, won the men's team sprint Wednesday for his fifth gold at the 2026 Games. Klaebo's victory made him only the second Olympian ever -- along with swimming great Michael Phelps -- with 10 gold medals."
"Phelps won 23 golds over four Olympics from 2004 to 2016, including eight wins at the 2008 Beijing Games. Klaebo broke the Winter Olympics record in Sunday's 4x7.5-kilometer relay, and he will look to go 6-for-6 at these Games in Saturday's 50-kilometer mass start. He would join three swimmers -- Phelps (twice), Mark Spitz and Kristin Otto -- and gymnast Vitaly Scherbo with at least six golds at one Olympics."
