Talk about etching your name in the history books.
If you spotted Norway’s Johannes Høsflot Klæbo at the Closing Ceremony of the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, and want to know more about the cross-country skier who dominated his sport in record-breaking fashion, we’ve got answers.
Klæbo had dizzying Winter Games success with a gold medal run for the ages. With him being an official Flagbearer of the Closing Ceremony, let’s take a look at his dominance at the Games — and marvel at all he’s accomplished.

What records did Norway’s Johannes Høsflot Klæbo set at the 2026 Olympics?
The 29-year-old cross-country skier began his 2026 run with a February 8 gold medal-winning performance in the Men’s 10km + 10km Skiathlon and never looked back, ultimately winning an impressive 6 gold medals overall, one for each event that he competed in this year’s Games.
With the clean sweep, Klæbo became the Olympian athlete with the most gold medals earned in a single Winter Olympics — ever.
Previously, the record was held by U.S. speed skater Eric Heiden, who earned five in the Lake Placid 1980 Winter Olympics.
Klæbo now has more gold medals than any other Winter Olympics athlete.
How many gold medals does Johannes Høsflot Klæbo have?
Klæbo now has a total of 11 Olympic gold medals over the course of his career: six from the 2026 Games, two from 2022, and three from 2018.
Klæbo is only behind only swimmer Michael Phelps when it comes to overall (Summer and Winter) Olympic gold medal leaders. But Klæbo has quite a ways to go to reach the legendary U.S. swimmer’s gold medal count since Phelps has 23 of them!

Here are the events Klæbo won gold in at the 2026 Winter Olympics:
- Men’s 10km Interval Start Free
- Men’s 4×7.5km Relay
- Men’s 50km Mass Start Classic
- Men’s 10km + 10km Skiathlon
- Men’s Sprint Classic
- Men’s Team Sprint Free
Klæbo’s performance was a big reason why Norway finished first in the final medal count standings in both gold (18) and total medals won (41), besting the United States, which earned 12 and 33, respectively.
“Even though I’ve been nervous at some of the competitions, it still feels really good to race, and I’m always looking forward to going out there, fighting for medals,” Klæbo told Olympics.com. “I have a very supportive family and fiancée. Together we’re making the right choices and the result of that is six gold medals.”

Speaking of his supportive fiancée, Klæbo announced his engagement to his longtime girlfriend, Pernille Døsvik, in a joyous June 15, 2025 Instagram post.
“2025 just keeps getting better and better,” he wrote at the time, alongside an all-smiles engagement selfie.
How many total Olympic medals does Johannes Høsflot Klæbo have?
In addition to his 11 gold medals, Klæbo also has one silver and one bronze medal, both won at the 2022 Beijing Games, bring his total Olympic medal count to 13.
