The U.S. is on a gold streak, and hopes to keep it going to finish out their time in Milan Cortina. After leapfrogging Italy in the medal count leaderboard on Thursday, Team USA was looking to add to their tally Friday.
In Friday's medal events, Team USA picked up another gold medal in the men's Freestyle Skiing halfpipe final, where Alex Ferreira finally captured gold to complete his set after winning silver and bronze in 2018 and 2022. Ferreira threw down a 93.75 in his third and final run of the night to jump ahead of Estonia's Henry Sildaru for the gold medal.
As the 2026 Winter Olympics are coming to a close in Italy, here's everything you need to know about the closing ceremony.
Frostad swiped the gold medal back from Forehand by equalling that 98.25 on his final run, giving Norway its 14th gold of this year's Games. While Forehand couldn't nab gold, he walked away with an impressive silver medal in what commentators called the best Big Air competition they've ever seen with outrageous scoring from the entire field.
