Gold snap? Team GB aim for their best ever winter Olympics
January 14, 2026
|The Guardian
Team GB believe they can achieve “the greatest Olympic performance we have ever seen at a winter Games” and are targeting up to eight medals next month in Milan and Cortina.
That bullish aim is significantly higher than Britain’s previous best of five medals, secured in Sochi in 2014 and Pyeongchang in 2018. And while the Covid-affected Games in Beijing in 2022 were a disappointment, with just two curling medals, officials are confident the team can soar to fresh heights in Italy.
“We are in the strongest position we have ever been going into a Games from a world championship performance perspective,” said Kate Baker, the director of performance and people at UK Sport. “There is lots to be excited about.”
UK Sport, which funds Britain’s Olympic sports, seta medal target of four to eight medals from the winter Olympics and two to fivemedals from the Paralympics.
“That range is ambitious,” said Baker. “But the dead centre of that range will represent the greatest Olympic performance we have ever seen at a winter Games.”
