What Team USA couples are competing at the 2026 Winter Olympics?
At least 20 athletes from Team USA, including 10 couples, will compete in nine sports at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, with half making their Olympic debut.
- This year, Team USA lists at least 10 athlete couples competing across nine of the 16 sports at the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.
- Some partnerships date back to adolescence, with at least one couple meeting when they were 16, enabled by U.S. citizenship last year, making them eligible.
- Figure skating and cross-country skiing each supply four of the coupled athletes, while ski jumping and ice hockey supply one apiece; most couples compete in the same sport but not always.
- None of the paired athletes will face each other, with Evan Bates and Madison Chock competing in their fifth Olympics, while most are first-timers.
- Two duos feature first-time Olympians, and Emily and Dominik Fischnaller's long partnership makes them the longest-coupled US–Italy lugers, illustrating the group's diversity.
