USA already has 27 medals at the 2026 Winter Olympics, and there are still multiple medal events left where American athletes have realistic chances to add to that total.

Where things stand now

  • Current Team USA total: 27 medals (9 gold, 12 silver, 6 bronze).
  • That already surpasses the 25 medals the U.S. won at Beijing 2022.
  • Recent boosts came from:
    • Alysa Liu’s figure skating gold.
* U.S. women’s hockey gold.

* Jordan Stolz’s silver in the 1500m speed skating.

How many more medals can the USA win?

No one can give an exact number, but we can talk in terms of range and potential :

  • Remaining events where USA typically has medal chances include:
    • Speed skating and short track.
* Freestyle skiing and snowboarding events.

* Bobsled/skeleton in some late events.
  • Historically, late surges of a few medals over the last 2–3 days are common for big teams like the U.S., especially in hockey, skating, and sliding sports.

A reasonable ballpark from now to the end of the Games could be:

  • Conservative: +2 to +3 medals (if things break average).
  • Optimistic but plausible: +5 or a bit more (if they capitalize on most remaining chances).

That would put Team USA somewhere in the low 30s in total medals, with an outside shot of pushing mid‑30s if everything goes right.

Can USA still climb the medal table?

  • Norway currently leads the overall table with 34 medals (16 gold).
  • USA is at 27 medals with 9 gold, sitting behind Norway but in the mix with Italy and others.
  • To “win” the table by gold medals , USA would probably need a mini-surge of late golds and Norway to slow down.
  • To finish high on total medals , a few more podiums are very realistic and could tighten the gap.

In forum-style discussions, fans are asking almost exactly this question: can the U.S. grab enough late medals to challenge the top of the table, especially if men’s hockey and a few final ice events go their way?

Storyline angle: what to watch

If you’re following the “how many more medals can USA win” storyline, the key narrative over the last days will likely revolve around:

  1. Team sports (men’s hockey medal chase, possibly curling or other late team events).
  2. Speed events where Americans are peaking at just the right time (speed skating, freestyle skiing, snowboarding).

So the short, honest take:

  • USA will almost certainly add to 27 ,
  • ending somewhere in the low-30s total medals is very plausible,
  • and a medal-table shake-up is still on the table if late events break in America’s favor.
