Top Scores

Esmee Visser

Dario Cologna of Switzerland officially became the first cross-country skier to capture gold three times in the same event with a win in the men's 15-kilometer freestyle.

"It takes a lot of effort to just to win one gold medal," Cologna said in an Associated Press report (via ESPN). "To write a little bit of history feels pretty good."

It was also the first gold medal of the games for Switzerland.

For Belarus, a victory by Hanna Huskova in women's aerials was the country's first medal of any kind at this year's games.

It's the second consecutive Olympics that Belarus has won the event, as Alla Tsuper—who finished fourth—was the gold-medal winner in the 2014 Games in Sochi, Russia.

Madison Olsen was the highest U.S. finisher in sixth—a strong showing for the 22-year-old who could be a factor at the 2022 games.

Madison Olsen is a name to remember for the 2022 games.

Finally, Esmee Visser added to the Netherlands' gold-medal haul in speedskating with a win in the women's 5,000-meters.

The 21-year-old beat heavily favored Martina Sablikova of the Czech Republic, who won gold in 2010 and 2014.

Visser was able to trim a full 12 seconds off the time she posted at the Dutch championships, according to Dutch News. The Netherlands has now won gold in six of the seven speedskating events that have been run so far.
