Video highlights: US hockey goes for gold, figure skating and more Thursday at Winter Olympics
It's another action-packed Thursday at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, with U.S. women's hockey, the "Blade Angels" and speed skating superstar Jordan Stolz all vying for gold. The U.S. women’s hockey team will play in the gold medal game against Canada.
Simone Biles held off Brazil's Rebeca Andrade for all-around Olympics gymnastics gold. At 27, she's the oldest Olympic women's gymnastics champ since 1952.
The seven-time Olympic gold medalist attended Team USA’s quarterfinal matchup against Team Sweden at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 on Wednesday. Biles waved an American flag as she cheered on the U.S. with her husband, Jonathan Owens, and a friend in the Santagiulia Arena stands.
Biles talked about the "Kiss-and-Cry" section that figure skating and gymnastics athletes have to wait in before learning their scores. Broadcast cameras are focused in on the athletes to capture every emotion, good or bad, when they learn if they won a medal or not--a harsh spot for competitive athletes to be put in during nerve-racking moments.
Simone Biles is in Italy to support Team USA for the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics. The decorated gymnast has attended multiple events with her husband, Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens. They have both been cheering on American athletes who take center stage in some of the biggest moments
