Deadspin | Norway’s Johannes Klaebo ties Olympic record with 8th gold medal

Sports news

Johannes Klaebo of Norway wins the 10km interval start free 10K men’s cross country event in Tesoro, Italy, on Friday at the Milan Cortina Olympics.

TESERO, Italy — Norway’s Johannes Klaebo won the men’s 10km freestyle cross-country ski race on Friday to earn his eighth Olympic title and equal the record for the most gold medals at the Winter Games.

Mathis Desloges of France won silver, his second of the Milan Cortina Olympics, while Norway’s Einar Hedegart won the bronze.

The victory was the third of this Olympics for Klaebo, 29, and tied the Norwegian skier with three of his compatriots — fellow cross-country skiers Marit Bjoergen and Bjorn Daehlie and biathlete Ole Einar Bjorndalen — with eight gold medals overall. He is scheduled to ski in three more events and could take the outright lead for gold medals by an individual Olympian.

“Today is one of the toughest races we’ve done, and everyone was completely exhausted when we crossed the finish line. For me, today was really hard. I tried to open with control and at the end there it was really hard,” said Klaebo, who won his first three Olympic golds at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games and two more at the 2022 Beijing Games.

“I’m really satisfied with being first. This is my first time winning a 10k in interval style.”

Hedegart, a biathlete who shifted his focus to cross-country skiing and was considered one of Klaebo’s biggest challengers, came close to taking victory, but lost steam on a climb in the final section of the race.

He ended up in third, 14 seconds behind the winner, with Desloges 4.9 seconds adrift in the interval-style race.

“I’ve never experienced this kind of dizziness. I was so dizzy the last two kilometers and I had nothing left in the tank, so it was just pain and suffering,” Hedegart said.

“In the last 200m I didn’t know if I was going to make it to the finish line, and even though it was only downhill I was so scared that I would pass out.”

Skiers faced another day of warm weather, with temperatures hitting 42 degrees, prompting some to forgo their tops and only wear a race bib. Those starting earlier in the competition had an advantage as conditions deteriorated over the course of the race, causing several skiers to crash when going down hills.

Course officials decided against salting the track to make the snow more compact, as they had done the previous day for the women’s 10km freestyle event.

Deadspin | Jon Rahm again dominates back 9 to remain LIV Mexico City leader Aug 24, 2025; Detroit, Michigan, USA; Jon Rahm of Legion XIII reacts to making his putt on the 18th green in a playoff hole during the finals of the LIV Golf Michigan Team Championship at The Cardinal at Saint John’s Resort. Mandatory Credit: Aaron Doster-Imagn Images Jon Rahm dominated the back nine once again on Saturday to remain atop the leaderboard at 14 under through three rounds of LIV Golf Mexico City in Naucalpan, Mexico. Rahm overcame a double-bogey on the par-4 fifth hole and a 1-over showing on the front nine by shooting 5 under on the back nine to post his second consecutive 4-under-par 67. Through three rounds this week, the Spaniard has shot 11 under on the back nine at Club de Golf Chapultepec. He’s two strokes clear of Legion XIII teammate Tyrrell Hatton (66) of England at 12 under, who had a bogey-free Saturday round which included an eagle on the par-5 seventh hole. Another Legion XIII player, Northern Ireland’s Tom McKibbin (69), is tied for third at 11 under with Brendan Grace (65) of South Africa. Three members of the same team haven’t finished in the top three spots in a LIV event since the inaugural LIV event at London in 2022. “It’s a real honor. Honestly. It’s great to see them playing well, too,” Rahm said of his team’s performance. ” … I’m not surprised at all. I’m happy to see them up there. And let’s see if it’s not me, but one of the three of us who wins tomorrow.” Rahm, who has won the LIV individual championship each of the last two seasons, is seeking his second win of the season and sixth top-five finish in as many 2026 LIV events. Grace, who was even par in the first round, has surged toward the top of the leaderboard after an up-and-down third round. He got to 4 under through his first five holes after an eagle at No. 7 before going bogey, birdie, birdie, double bogey on the next four holes. He finished the back nine with four birdies in five holes before a bogey at the 18th and pars on the first and second holes to finish his rocky but effective round. “I gave myself chances. I think I made eight birdies and an eagle today and then obviously a couple of mishaps out there,” Grace said. “But around a place like this, it’s easy to do.” Included in a five-way tie for fifth at 10 under is Spain’s David Puig, who scattered eight birdies, an eagle and a bogey Saturday for the second 9-under round of the week. Victor Perez, who shot 9 under on Thursday, has fallen back into a tie for 22nd after posting a combined score of 5 over the last two rounds. Bryson DeChambeau’s pursuit of becoming the first player in LIV Golf history to win three straight individual events appears quite finished after he shot 2 over in the third round to fall into a tie for 41st. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Jon #Rahm #dominates #remain #LIV #Mexico #City #leaderAug 24, 2025; Detroit, Michigan, USA; Jon Rahm of Legion XIII reacts to making his putt on the 18th green in a playoff hole during the finals of the LIV Golf Michigan Team Championship at The Cardinal at Saint John’s Resort.
