Speed skating-China's Ning stuns field to claim 1,500m gold at Milano Cortina
- Thursday, Ning Zhongyan won the men's 1,500-meter final in an Olympic-record 1:41.98, upsetting pre-race favourite Jordan Stolz in Milan.
- Having shown form earlier this month, Ning claimed bronze in the men's 1,000 on Feb. 11 at the Milano Speed Skating Stadium, which has produced swift times.
- Stolz finished 0.77 behind Ning to earn silver, while Kjeld Nuis took bronze in 1:42.82 on Thursday.
- With the victory, Ning Zhongyan captured his first Olympic gold medal and denied Jordan Stolz a chance to win three golds at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
- Having already won the 500 and 1,000 meters and set Olympic records, Stolz would have joined Eric Heiden, who won five golds in 1980, with a 1,500 victory.
