#winterolympics2026 This is a historic moment for cross-country skiing. By winning the **Men's 10km Interval Start Freestyle** yesterday (Friday, February 13), Johannes Høsflot Klæbo has not only secured his third gold of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Games but has also etched his name alongside the greatest Winter Olympians of all time.

### The Historic 8th Gold

With this victory, Klæbo has tied the all-time record for Winter Olympic gold medals. He now joins the legendary "Club of 8" alongside compatriots **Bjørn Dæhlie**, **Marit Bjørgen**, and **Ole Einar Bjørndalen**.

**The Winning Performance:**

* **Event:** Men's 10km Interval Start (Freestyle)
* **Time:** 20:36.2
* **Margin:** He finished 4.9 seconds ahead of silver medalist **Mathis Desloges** (France) and 14 seconds ahead of bronze medalist **Einar Hedegart** (Norway).
* **Significance:** This win is particularly special as the interval start was historically the one format where Klæbo was considered vulnerable. His dominance here completes his evolution into the perfect all-around skier.

### Klæbo's "Hat-Trick" in Milan-Cortina

This 10km freestyle victory adds to his incredible haul from earlier in the week:

1. **Skiathlon (20km):** Gold
2. **Individual Sprint (Classical):** Gold
3. **10km Interval Start (Freestyle):** Gold

### The Road to a Solo Record

Klæbo is now on the verge of standing alone as the most successful Winter Olympian in history. He needs just **one more gold** to reach 9, breaking the tie. His next opportunity is imminent:

* **Men’s 4 x 7.5km Relay** – Tomorrow, Sunday, February 15.
* *Outlook:* Norway is the heavy favorite, and Klæbo will likely anchor the team.

* **Team Sprint (Freestyle)** – Wednesday, February 18.
* **50km Mass Start (Classical)** – Saturday, February 21.

> **Stat Check:** Klæbo has won gold in *every* event he has entered so far these Games. If Norway wins the relay tomorrow, he will officially become the winningest Winter Olympian of all time.#OLYCoin #Olympics $USDC
