2022 Olympic Medal Count: Here's the Latest Ranking and Where Team USA Stands

Team USA continued to add to its medal count at the 2022 Winter Olympics, but was it enough to lift them higher on the leaderboard? With the help of two Chicago-area speed skaters, the U.S. scored a bronze medal in the men’s team pursuit overnight. The U.S. is up to seven golds, seven silvers and four bronzes so far in Beijing, with even more medals expected this week. Over 300 medals will be awarded to Olympians participating in the 2022 Winter Games. With 15 sports and 109 events, ranging from skiing to bobsledding to figure skating, world-class athletes will go for gold during a two-week global competition on the grandest stage. The United States came to Beijing with the second-most Winter Olympics medals with 305. Here are the top nations in the medal count so far: 1. Norway – 26 (12 gold, 7 silver, 7 bronze) 2. ROC – 20 (4 gold, 7 silver, 9 bronze) 3. Germany- 18 (9 gold, 6 silver, 3 bronze) 4. United States- 17 (7 gold, 6 silver, 4 bronze) 5. Canada- 17 (2 gold, 4 silver, 11 bronze) The U.S. now sits in a tie for fourth place with 17 medals. Norway continues to lead the way with 12 gold medals. How is Team USA Doing? The U.S. endured five days of grueling competition – with some disappointing upsets – to finally bring home its first gold medal last week. Lindsey Jacobellis slid to victory in the women’s snowboard cross, putting an end to Team USA’s gold-less streak at the Winter Olympics in Beijing. Snowboarder Julia Marino won the United States’ first medal on Saturday, but it was not gold. Madison Chock and Evan Bates added another silver medal to the team’s count after their stunning galactic-themed ice dance Sunday night. Jaelin Kauf won the Olympic silver behind Australia’s Jakara Anthony during the women’s moguls finals, and Ryan Cochran-Siegle clinched another silver medal, adding to the USA’s total count, in men’s super-G, on Tuesday. Jessie Diggins secured the fifth medal for Team USA – the bronze in women’s individual sprint, cross-country skiing. She made history here, becoming the first American to win a medal in the cross-country skiing individual sprint event. Nathan Chen earned gold in the men’s singles figure skating competition at the 2022 Winter Games. He clinched the title by receiving a 332.60 total score, giving him a 22.55-point victory over silver-winning Yuma Kagiyama of Japan. Chloe Kim wasted no time showing off why she is the reigning gold medalist as she blew the competition away with her first run of the final halfpipe event – securing her spot at the top of the podium and women’s halfpipe history. The United States won the first-ever Olympic gold medal in the mixed teams aerial event at the Winter Olympics. The trio of Ashley Caldwell, Chris Lillis and Justin Schoenefeld scored a total of 338.34, beating out China for the gold. It’s the first gold medal in aerial freestyle skiing for the U.S. since 1998. Mixed team snowboard cross made its Olympic debut at the 2022 Beijing Games and Team USA also won the first-ever gold medal in the event. Erin Jackson ended a medal-less day for the U.S. on Sunday with her win in the 500-meter final. Megan Nick scored bronze in women’s aerials early Monday morning, Kaillie Humphries won the first-ever gold in the women’s monobob and teammate Elana Meyers Taylor joined her on the podium with a silver medal and American duo Madison Hubbell and Zach Donohue earned bronze in the ice dance event.
