By Pearl Josephine Nazare MILAN, Feb 14 (Reuters) - American speed skating phenomenon Jordan Stolz once again stole the spotlight on Saturday, rocketing to the men's 500 metres title at the Winter Olympics and securing his second gold medal of these Games.

Great Britain's hopes for a gold medal in the men's 1500m short track speed skating event come to an abrupt end, as Niall Treacy is penalised for a lane infringement which leads to a collision.

Thursday is the final day of men’s individual figure skating events at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics. And it should be one for the ages. U.S. sensation Ilia Malinin takes to the ice later in the day for a must-watch men’s free skate.

Maxim Naumov, a 24-year-old figure skater from Norwood, finished his final performance on Olympic ice tonight during the men's free program competition in Milan.

The U.S. speed skater is already 1-for-1 in golds in these Games and gets another chance to add to his trophy case in the 500m event Saturday morning.

Stolz holds two Olympic records in men's speed skating. He achieved this historic "sprint double" by breaking the records in the 500-meter and 1,000-meter events during the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina. Jordan Stolz with a 33.77 OLYMPIC RECORD 500m! 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/ZPd5lUO2if
