About this listen
Jordan Stolz has stormed the headlines this week with another dazzling display at the Salt Lake City ISU World Cup opener. NBC Sports and NBC Olympics report that Jordan clinched a staggering trio of gold medals, triumphing in the 500m, 1000m, and 1500m events just days ago. His victory in the 1500m with a time of 1:40.483 capped off his third top-of-podium finish at this competition, solidifying his reputation as the United States’ unassailable sprint king and a genuine phenom in the sport.
More than just podium performances, the real buzz came from Jordan’s announcement—reported by Washington County Insider and backed by direct commentary from his coach—that he is officially planning to compete in four events at the upcoming 2026 Winter Olympics, adding the mass start to his established strengths of 500m, 1000m, and 1500m. The mass start, a chaotic race with up to 24 skaters at once, has his coach Bob Corby openly concerned, admitting he’d rather see Jordan stick to his favorite metric distances. Dutch media are transfixed by the debate, but the Stolz camp confirms he is committed to qualifying and will test his skills in the mass start event Sunday in Salt Lake City. Olympic legends like Eric Heiden and Shani Davis have weighed in, predicting that Jordan’s versatility could make mass start a career-defining chapter if he invests in it. It’s a calculated gamble that could see Stolz not just contest, but shake up the sport’s biggest stage.
The Pettit National Ice Center, the heart of Wisconsin speed skating, is celebrating Stolz’s rise and prepping for a major event: tickets recently went on sale for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials in January 2026, set to be held in Milwaukee. Stolz—already a world record holder in the 1000m and a seven-time world champion at just 18—will be aiming to secure his Olympic spot right in front of his hometown fans, a moment he’s said will be astonishing compared to previous trials hampered by restrictions. With this, local organizers and US Speedskating have hinted at expecting another sold-out crowd as the community rallies behind their star.
Though Stolz’s social media this week has mostly amplified his race results and upcoming mass start bid, fans and fellow athletes alike are cheering him on, recognizing the magnitude of this moment for Team USA and the global speedskating scene. No major controversies or speculative stories have surfaced—this week is all about performance, ambition, and anticipation for what comes next.
