Mia Manganello wins bronze, Jordan Stolz finishes fourth in mass start at Winter Olympics
Jorrit Bergsma became the oldest Olympic speedskating gold medalist at 40, while Mia Manganello earned bronze in her final race as World Cup mass start champion.
- In the men's mass start on Saturday, Jorrit Bergsma won at the Milano Speed Skating Stadium, with Jordan Stolz finishing fourth.
- The mass start, added in 2018, features pack-style racing that can cause jostling and what some skaters call random outcomes.
- In the decisive move, the pair separated from the pack midway through the 16-lap race, with Bergsma pulling clear to coast home for gold while Viktor Hald Thorup claimed silver.
- Mia Manganello took bronze in the women's mass start, earning the first U.S. Olympic medal in that event and her first individual medal; the 36-year-old celebrated with a U.S. flag victory lap.
- Looking at legacies, the result lifts Jorrit Bergsma's Olympic medal total to five, including a 2014 gold, as he wins in the men's mass start, with Jordan Stolz missing a historic three-gold bid.
