American Olympian Jordan Stolz earned a silver medal in the men’s speedskating 1,500-meter event at the 2026 Winter Games. He finished just 0.77 seconds behind China’s Ning Zhongyan, who set an Olympic record with a time of 1:41.98.
This silver adds to Stolz's already impressive performance at the Games. He previously captured two gold medals, setting Olympic records in both the 500-meter and 1,000-meter races. Stolz is the first American since Eric Heiden in 1980 to win multiple speed skating golds in a single Olympics.
Stolz entered the Olympics as a top contender, boasting 17 international titles. His silver medal in the 1500 meters further solidifies his status as one of the world's elite speed skaters.
