Norway’s Johannes Hosflot Klaebo clinched the first of a potential six gold medals at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics in the 10km+10km skiathlon.
It takes the 29-year-old’s career Olympic gold tally to six, just two behind the all-time winter record.
That is held by the Norwegian trio of biathlete Ole Einar Bjorndalen and cross country skiers Bjorn Daehlie and Marit Bjorgen, who are all retired.
Team GB’s Andrew Musgrave came 10th in his fifth Games – just short of his best Olympic finish of seventh in 2018 – with fellow Briton Joe Davis 16th.
