Switzerland shines at 2026 Winter Olympics with six medals in four days
Day 4 of the 2026 Winter Olympics saw Switzerland add more medals to their tally. The team now stands at six, with strong performances across multiple disciplines. But not all Swiss athletes found success, as some narrowly missed the podium in their events.
The Swiss team's medal count grew after another busy day. Franjo von Allmen secured his second gold in alpine skiing downhill, following his earlier victory on February 7. He also teamed up with Tanguy Nef to win gold in the alpine team combination, while Loïc Meillard and Marco Odermatt took silver in the same event.
Mathilde Gremaud claimed gold in freeski slopestyle, adding to the country's success. Gregor Deschwanden earned bronze in the ski jumping normal hill, bringing Switzerland's total to three golds, one silver, and one bronze by the end of the day.
Not all results went Switzerland's way, however. Andri Ragettli finished just off the podium in fourth place during the slopestyle final. Nadine Fähndrich was eliminated in the cross-country sprint quarterfinals, missing a chance to medal. Swiss pairs also failed to secure a spot in the team alpine combined.
In women's luge, Natalie Maag placed ninth, unable to break into the top ranks.
Switzerland now has six medals after four days of competition. The team's success includes multiple golds in alpine skiing and freeski, though some athletes fell short of podium finishes. The Winter Olympics continue with more events still to come.
