Maloney Westgaard impresses as Klaebo claims sixth gold

Thomas Maloney Westgaard finished an impressive 23rd in the men’s 50km cross-country skiing at the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics as Norway’s Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo completed the clean sweep to take his sixth gold of the 2026 Games.

Klaebo finished the line in a time of 2:07.07.1, breaking free of fellow Norwegian Martin Loewstroem Nyenget who finished 17.5 seconds behind at the Tesero Cross Country Stadium.

The podium was set to be red, white and blue as Norway’s Emil Iversen took bronze in a race that saw 57 finish from a field of 65.

Maloney Westgaard, competing in his third Olympics, finished just over 12 minutes behind Klaebo in his best result of the Games.
