Klaebo sets Winter Olympics gold standard and leads Norway to new heights

Norway’s Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo set the new gold standard Saturday for the most wins by one athlete in a single Winter Olympics by sweeping all six men's cross-country skiing events at the Milan Cortina Games. The nation has won big on cross-country skis — in classic and freestyle races and Nordic combined in Tesero, and biathlon in Anterselva. It also has notable wins in ski jumping, freestyle skiing, Alpine skiing and speedskating.
