how many gold medals did us win in sochi
United States at the 2014 Winter Olympics After winning an Olympic record 37 medals at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, the United States had a somewhat disappointing performance during these games. Although the delegation ranked second in overall medals with 28, it ranked out of the top three in gold medals (with a total of nine) for the first time since Nagano in 1998 when it placed 6th in overall medals and 5th in gold medals.[5] In long track speedskating, the U.S. matched its medal-less results from 1984 and 1956.[6] In figure skating, the U.S. won no medals in the men's or women's singles events for the first time since 1936.[7]
United States at the 2018 Winter Olympics The United States had its worst showing at a Winter Olympics since the 1998 Nagano Games, ranking out of the top three in both the gold and total medal count with 9 and 23 medals respectively, and finished fourth in both rankings.[2] However, there were some notable successes for the team. Jessica Diggins and Kikkan Randall won the first Olympic gold medal in cross-country skiing ever for the United States in the women's team sprint event.[3] Skip John Shuster led his team to the United States' first-ever gold medal in curling, winning the men's curling over Sweden.[4] The United States women's national ice hockey team also won the gold in the women's ice hockey tournament for the first time since the inauguration of the sport in 1998 over archrival Canada in an overtime penalty shootout.[5]
