Four athletes will be representing Team Ireland at the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games. Anabelle Zurbay, Cormac Comerford, and Ben Lynch are making their first Olympic appearance, while Thomas Maloney Westgård is becoming Ireland’s second-ever three-time Winter Olympian at this year's games in Italy.

She’s the only U.S. skater still in medal contention.

Some athletes reinforced their status as global leaders in their disciplines, executing performances that looked almost effortless despite immense stakes.
