History was rewritten on Saturday as Team USA captured its 11th gold medal at the Winter Olympics — the most ever by the United States at a single Winter Games.

The milestone surpassed the previous national record of 10 gold medals set at the 2002 Winter Olympics, a benchmark that had stood for more than two decades. At the 2026 Winter Olympics, a new generation of American athletes pushed past that mark.

Gold medals came across a wide range of disciplines, from figure skating and speed skating to hockey and power events, highlighting the depth and versatility of the U.S. team. Again and again, athletes delivered under pressure on the sport’s biggest stage.

Officials and fans alike pointed to preparation, resilience, and teamwork as defining themes of the run. The performances reflected years of development and investment across multiple winter sports.

Beyond the medal count, the achievement represents a shift in legacy — a statement that Team USA is not only competing at the highest level, but redefining its place in Winter Olympic history. 🇺🇸❄️
