Norway's Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo secures his 10th gold medal in cross-country skiing at the Milan Cortina Olympics, setting a new Winter Games record. At 29, Klaebo, racing alongside Einar Hedegart, dominates the men's team sprint, marking his fifth gold at these Games. He joins swimming legend Michael Phelps as only the second Olympian to achieve 10 gold medals. Phelps boasts 23 golds over four Olympics, including eight at the 2008 Beijing Games. Klaebo previously shattered the Winter Olympics record in the 4x7.5-kilometer relay and targets a remarkable six golds with his upcoming race in Saturday's 50-kilometer mass start. If successful, he will join an elite group, including Phelps, Mark Spitz, Kristin Otto, and Vitaly Scherbo, with at least six golds in a single Olympics.
