Jordan Stolz is looking to make history on Saturday.
The American speed skater is going for a gold medal in the 500-meter speed skating event, which would be his second gold of the 2026 Winter Olympics. Stolz previously won gold after setting an Olympic record in the 1,000-meter speed skating event on Wednesday.
The 21-year-old Stolz is competing in his second Olympics this winter. In 2022, Stolz competed in both the 500-meter and 1,000-meter events as well but didn’t medal in either race, finishing outside the top 10 in both.
A win on Saturday would cement Stolz’s place in speed skating history and propel him into star status among Winter Olympians.
