The 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics officially begins today with the opening ceremony and a number of early events. Curling began the action over the past two days and continues this Friday, as does the women’s ice hockey competition that saw Team USA beat Czech Republic yesterday.
At Milano Cortina, Austria and Switzerland will be sending 11 skiers, Italy 10, and France? Just seven. No wonder several of the country’s best skiers didn’t make the initial list.
It’s time to get in the winter sport spirit! The 2026 Winter Olympics have officially kicked off, with the opening ceremony happening today.
Team USA comes into the Milan Cortina Games with a handful of gold-medal hopefuls in both individual and team events.
From Zoi Sadowski-Synnott to Mark McMorris, these eight slopestyle and big air snowboarders are threats to make the podium at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics.
