Medal Race Tightens as Global Winter Action Continues in Italy
The world’s top winter athletes continue to battle for podium spots across the mountains and arenas of Italy. With only 5 competition days remaining, the medal race is beginning to take clearer shape as several powerhouse nations separate themselves from the pack.
Current Top 5 Medal Count
Norway – 31 medals (14 gold, 8 silver, 9 bronze)
Italy – 24 medals (9 gold, 4 silver, 11 bronze)
United States – 21 medals (6 gold, 10 silver, 5 bronze)
Germany – 20 medals (5 gold, 8 silver, 7 bronze)
Japan – 19 medals (4 gold, 5 silver, 10 bronze)
Norway continues to lead the way with its usual dominance across multiple winter disciplines, while host nation Italy has energized home crowds with a strong all around performance. The United States remains firmly in the hunt, and both Japan and Germany are close enough to make a serious push up the standings with a single big day.

Women’s Slalom – Alpine Skiing
