Matt Weston's glorious gold headlined Team GB's action on Day 7 of Milano Cortina 2026.
Weston was utterly dominant as he clinched skeleton gold by almost an entire second, setting track records on all four of his runs.
He becomes the first British individual male Olympic champion since Robin Cousins in 1980 and earned Team GB's 13th Winter Olympic gold.
"[It means] everything," he said. "It means a hell of a lot to me personally, I have worked so hard for this.
"Everyone back at home, my fiancee, my family, my friends, everyone that has sacrificed for me to be here. I have missed funerals, birthdays, everything for this moment and it feels amazing."
Teammate Marcus Wyatt finished ninth.
Brits sit in top 10
Team GB’s trio of women’s skeleton sliders all sit inside the top 10 after the first two runs.
Tabby Stoecker leads the way in fifth, having sat third after the first run before losing a small amount of time in her second attempt.
Close behind in sixth is Freya Tarbit, who produced a dazzling second run to move up the standings. Amelia Coltman sits ninth.
“That's probably the best one I've ever done down the track so I'm really, really proud of it,” said Tarbit.
“I was just fixing mistakes from run one. It was a solid start but it was a little bit scrappy so I was really clear on my plan, fixing mistakes and I just felt really good on the sled.”
Musgrave makes history
Andrew Musgrave made British Olympic history with a sixth-place finish in the men’s cross-country 10km interval start free.
It marked the highest-ever finish for a British athlete in Olympic cross-country, beat Musgrave’s previous best of seventh at PyeongChang 2018.
"There's mixed feelings," he said. "The position is fairly decent and I was feeling good.
"I stuck to the plan I had which not to go out too hard because it's hot, I didn't want to push and then die.
"I think I pushed a wee bit too hard on the last lap there and the last two hills I was absolutely dying.
"It wasn't the greatest job at pacing but I was never going to be in the fight for a medal, it was a long fight up to those guys.
"I probably should have been able to take a fourth spot but I didn't have 16 seconds in me for a medal."
Joe Davies finished 12th and James Clugnent 34th, after the latter was involved in an unfortunate crash.

Bankes was edged out in a competitive race that included eventual winner Josie Baff of Australia but the 30-year-old was left wanting far more.

“It’s frustrating because it doesn’t reflect the work that’s been done or the effort from the whole team around me,” she said.
“It’s been a battle and we’ve worked incredibly hard. I’ve been performing well on the World Cup circuit and at the World Championships over the last four years. We came here in a strong position, but unfortunately it didn’t come together.
“This wasn’t about injuries or bad luck. It was simply a disappointing performance. I feel sorry for everyone watching. It feels like I’ve let people down.”
Jefferies eyeing 2030
Jacques Jefferies already has an eye on the 2030 Games after making his Olympic debut in Milano Cortina.
Jefferies finished 81st in the men’s biathlon 10km sprint and believes there is plenty of room for improvement over the next four years as he eyes an Olympics close to home.
“Sadly, for me it was not the performance required, I was a little far back but it has been a great two races to gain experience and I'm now looking forward to being back here again in another four years," he said.
"I'm really happy, it was a really nice race and the atmosphere out on the course was amazing. This is what the Olympic Games are for."

Curlers keen to bounce back
It was defeat for both Team Mouat and Team Morrison on Friday, with both quartets out to bounce back with wins over the weekend.
Team Mouat were beaten 9-7 by Italy, with their late fightback not quite enough after going 4-0 down in the first end.
“I think it was nine good ends and seven good stones,” said Hammy McMillan “We fought back hard and it just shows what character we have as a team. It was very easy for your heads to get down and lose control of the game really quickly.”

Team Morrison were beaten 9-3 by South Korea and they go into the weekend positive despite still searching for their first win.
“We had a really strong start, so that was really positive,” said Sophie Jackson. “We were making lots of shots and then I think when we fell behind, we just started to struggle a little bit.
“But we're still feeling really positive, we're making loads of shots, so I'm just trying to build from that now.”
