The Winter Olympics are underway in Italy, and some medals have already been earned by some of the best athletes on the planet.

And Team USA is on the board as well with their first gold medal.

While the 2026 Winter Olympics are just starting, we’ll be keeping track of Team USA’s effort throughout the Winter Games here with a look at each medal secured by the athletes in Milano Cortina.

How many medals have Team USA won at the 2026 Winter Olympics?

Here is a table with a look at the medal count for Team USA, which will be updated daily.

Who has won medals for Team USA at the 2026 Winter Olympics?

Here we will take a deeper look at each medalist from Team USA.

Breezy Johnson: Gold, women’s downhill

Breezy Johnson’s dream of competing at the 2022 Winter Olympics ended in Cortina four year ago.

Now she has a gold medal.

Johnson suffered a devastating crash at the Tofane Alpine Skiing Centre in Cortina during a training run four years ago, a crash which partially dislodged a large chunk of cartilage in her right knee. As a result, she had to withdraw from the 2022 Beijing Olympic Games. But she conquered Cortina in the women’s downhill to secure both a gold medal, and the first medal for Team USA at the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Team USA: Team figure skating

The United States collected their second gold medal in the team figure skating competition.

And it was a narrow victory over Japan.

The event came down to a battle between the final two men’s skaters: Ilia Malinin of the U.S. and Shun Sato of Japan. Malinin had lost in the short program to Yuma Kagiyama earlier in the competition, who was replaced by Sato as the long program is considered his strength. And while Malinin delivered a disappointing performance with his long program — his result was his lowest free skate score in his last five competitions — it was still enough to see the United States through to a 69-68 win over Japan.

Ben Ogden: Cross-country skiing

A decades-long drought for Team USA in cross-country skiing is over.

Ben Ogden took silver in the cross-country skiing sprint on Tuesday, becoming just the second U.S. male cross-country skier to win an Olympic medal, and the first in 50 years.

Bill Koch took silver in the 50K classic at the 1976 Winter Olympics. As fate would have it, Ogden started his own cross-country skiing journey in the Bill Koch Youth Ski League. Ogden finished with a time of 3:40, a second behind gold-medalist Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo from Norway.

Alex Hall: Freestyle skiing

Alex Hall’s attempt at a repeat gold medal in freeski slopestyle fell short, as he was nipped by Norway’s Birk Ruud 86.28 to 85.75. Hall’s second run pulled him within a half-point of Ruud, but could not catch him on his final run.

With the silver medal, Team USA has secured seven of the 12 medals in the event’s history.

Jacqueline Wiles/Paula Moltzan: Alpine combined

As expected, Team USA secured a medal in the women’s team combined.

But it was not the pairing many expected to see.

Team USA favorites Breezy Johnson and Mikaela Shiffrin were in contention for gold as expected, after Johnson delivered the fastest downhill leg. But Shiffrin, winner of seven of eight slaloms this season, only finished 15th in her portion of the event, dropping the pair out of medal contention.

They missed out on bronze by 0.06 of a second.

Instead, that bronze went to Team USA pair Jacqueline Wiles and Paula Moltzan.

Cory Thiesse/Korey Dropkin: Mixed doubles curling

The United States has its third medal ever in Olympic curling.

Mixed doubles team of Corey Thiesse and Korey Dropkin advanced to the gold medal game against Sweden, but fell 6-5 to Swedish siblings Isabella and Rasmus Wranaa. But with the win Thiesse became the first American woman ever to win an Olympic curling medal, as Team USA’s previous two medals came in men’s curling.

Ashley Farquharson: Women’s luge

Ashley Farquharson made Team USA luge history, winning a shocking bronze medal in the women’s luge singles competition. Her bronze medal comes 12 years after Erin Hamlin took bronze at Sochi in the 2014 Winter Olympics, becoming Team USA’s first-ever luge medalist.

Chris Mazder took silver in the 2018 Winter Olympics.

Germany’s Julia Taubitz took gold, and Latvia’s Elina Bota — who also made history as the first woman from her country to take a singles luge medal — took silver.
